"Sarah concluded a tremendous indoor campaign tonight by finishing eighth in the NCAA and earning First Team All-America honors," assistant coach
Adam Bray said. "It is a pretty remarkable accomplishment especially when looking at how far she has come since starting our journey together. I am extremely proud of her and excited to see how she improves throughout the remainder of her career. Kennesaw State has one of the best athletes in the country and that is something we can all be proud of."
Â
"Tonight was all about getting the experience at the national level," Hendrick said. "I could not be happier to be an All-American. I of course am not satisfied with my performance but I have learned so much the past two days and could not have asked for a better support system being there every step of the way. I am definitely not settling and going to keep working harder for outdoor season."
 Â
Hendrick and the Owls open their outdoor season on March 19-20 at the Yellow Jacket Invitational hosted by Georgia Tech.
