Laura Roesler finished 4th in the 800 Meter Run at the 2012 NCAA Championships tonight. She ran a 2:02.96

She still has the 4x400 Meter Relay tomorrow afternoon where she and her Oregon teammates have the 2nd best time coming into the 4x400 Meter Relay finals.

Congrats Laura!

Very Impressive. Katie Conlon, former jamestown high and jamestown college standout, has also been running some great times for Oregon this year in XC in the Fall and indoor/outdoor track. Two great representatives for North Dakota!

Laura finished 2nd at the NCAA championships this weekend in the 800 meter run. She ran a personal best 2:00.98. She still has her senior year left - hoping to see her break that 2 minute mark next year and see her in the 2016 games. Great job Laura !

Laura finished 5th at the US outdoor Track championships at Drake University this weekend. I believe the top 3 get to go to the World Championships - so she missed out on that. On the bright side - she did run a PR at 2:00.23 and missed the top 3 by less than a second.

Let me say that I'm a huge LR fan and its a huge PR, but most of the top 800 runners in the world have not even competed yet!

She won the National Title in the 800. Was not even close. Absolutely dominated.

Well let's start with listing her times/places

7th Grade (2004) @ Valley City: 15:18.76 - 2nd Place; winning time was Melanie Funke (Minot) 14:59.68
8th Grade (2005) @ Bismarck: 15:37.53 - 2nd Place; winning time was Melanie Funke (Minot) 15:30.42
Freshman (2006) @ Jamestown: 14:33.00 - edged Melanie Funke (Minot) for 1st - 14:33.00
Sophomore (2007) @ Minot: 14:36.53 - edged Melanie Funke (Minot) for 1st - 14:38.22
Junior (2008) @ Jamestown: 16:37.57 - 50th Place (bad race)
Senior (2009) @ Valley City: 15:08.25 - 5th Place; teammate Lachowitzer wins in 14:53.55

In my opinion...she's in the top half of all runners from XC...probably not quite Top 5 but definitely one of the top 20 in XC history. I'd have to do WAY more research to come up with some sort of list.

Laura Roesler finished 2nd in the USATF Outdoor Championships in the 800 Meter Run in a time of 1:59.04 which happens to be her CAREER RECORD!!! (Winning time was 1:58.70)

Laura's time today is the 4th best time by a Collegiate Athlete in the 800 Meters.

I'm pretty sure that is the 5th fastest in the world this year.

ICYMI, Laura Roesler won the Bowerman a few days ago. The Bowerman is essentially the Heisman award for NCAA Track and Field. One award is given to each of the top male and female. Congrats Laura!
