Minnesota Multisport Awards - The official nominees for Female Most Improved are:

* MICHELLE ANDRES, 34, East Gull Lake

- A shoo-in to earn her first berth on Team Minnesota, the mother of five won seven of her 13 career victories in 2011. Her win at Gear West Du was particularly impressive, almost earning her a Performance of the Year nomination to go with her MI and TOY nods. (Photo below with her basketball team.)

* CLAIRE BOOTSMA, 24, Minneapolis

- Claire's first full summer of multisport racing consisted of 12 races, seven wins, five course records and four other podium finishes. The only time she placed out of the overall Top 3 was at ...

Nationals where she finished an impressive 6th overall.
