tommyd.png2018 MINNESOTA MULTISPORT HONORS - Based on our research, four tri rookies truly distinguished themselves in 2018, which is to say, they demonstrated the potential to ascend to regional elite status. Unfortunately, only two of them satisfied the minimum performance requirement, and will thus receive ROOKIE OF THE YEAR nominations.

With only two noteworthy performances in 2018, the other athlete, PAIGE SCHULZ, will be eligible for ROY consideration in 2019. 

If, however, Paige races one more time this year--Fall Classic Duathlon, perhaps?--and has an impressive result, she will be added to the list of ROY nominees.

If you're curious, Paige's two races this year were a 9th at Chisago, where she went 4:59:03, and her 25th at Ironman Wisconsin. Her time there was 10:58:40. Breaking "5" at 70.3, and "11" at 140.6 on your first try is a big deal and portends a successful future....

 

As for the three  athletes who are nominated for ROY honors, they are TOM DATWYLER (31, St. Louis Park), SHYANNE MCGREGOR (34, Duluth) and HEATHER TAYOR (24, Minneapolis). Here are their 2018 highlights:
