Former UA Track Standout Readies for 2016 Rio Olympics

Published in The Daily Wildcat on September 16, 2015

Georganne Moline, a UA track and field alumna, is developing her mind to become her strongest asset, as her sights are set on the upcoming Olympic Games. 

Moline, already one of the most decorated athletes to come out of Arizona’s track and field program, also competed in the 2012 Olympics. 

The track star suffered injuries in her early years at Arizona that prevented her from developing beyond being a college athlete. Moline started to make her way to the national level of collegiate track and field in her third season with the Wildcats, first by scoring at the Pac-10 Outdoor Championships, where she ran a time of 57.88 seconds in the 400-meter hurdles. 

This was only a mild beginning to her track success.
