Thomas Earns All-American Status

March 13, 2004

         BOSTON - Southern Illinois University Edwardsville freshman Jamie Thomas (Blue Island) earned All-American status Saturday by finishing sixth in the 60-meter hurdles at the NCAA Division II Women's Indoor Track and Field Championships at the Reggie Lewis Center.
         Thomas finished the event in 8.89 seconds. The top-eight finishers in the event were tabbed All-American.
         Thomas capped a busy day by also competing in the triple jump, where she finished in 10th place with a jump of 37 feet, 3 inches.
         Thomas and the rest of the Cougars will now try to build on their record-setting indoor season when the outdoor season kicks off the first weekend of April.
