2021 MINNESOTA MULTISPORT HONORS - Today we reveal the three women nominatedin the MOST IMPROVED category, which measures which athletes are "climbing the elite ladder," that is, they are perceived to have either "arrived," i.e. demonstrated that they are competitive with the established elite amateur tri / du athletes in our state, or are on the verge of doing so. It also applies to those Team Minnesota members who have elevated their positions. For instance, 2019 Team MInnesota members RACHEL ZILINSKAS, who was earned the MI honor that year, and JENNA HORNER, will place much higher on the Team this year, thus their upward mobility is worthy of MI consideration this time around.

So, in alpha order, here are the official 2021 Female Most Improved nominees and their highlights:

KATIE DEREGNIER, 33, Farmington (photo)

- 2nd overall woman @ Buffalo Olympic

- 2nd overall woman @ Maple Grove Olympic

- 6th amateur woman @ Des Moines ...

Great Opportunity!
