Megnin on NCAA ballot

Megnin, a 2005 Hartwick Athletic Hall of Fame inductee, won six New York State Collegiate Track Conference titles and four Eastern College Athletic Conference crowns in the high jump. She earned Hartwick’s freshman female athlete of the year award and was twice selected as the school’s female athlete of the year.
