2010-11... Wollert became the Cowgirls' top 800-meter runner in her freshman season, posting the fastest 800 mark in school history during the indoor season and the second-fastest time during the outdoor season. She finished third at the Mountain West Championships, and earned her way to the NCAA West Prelims with the 4-by-400-meter relay team. She won four events over the course of the year, and was an integral part of the Cowgirl attack in her rookie season. In addition to her accolades on the track, Wollert earned an Academic All-Conference and Scholar-Athlete honors.

High School... Wollert was a highly skilled athlete in high school, lettering several times in volleyball, indoor and outdoor track. She was a multiple state champion in both the 400- and 800-meter sprints, and participated in events like the Wyoming Track Classic and the Simplot Games.

Personal... Wollert was born Feb. 1 in Lamar, Colo., to Mike and Gretchen Wollert. She plans to study dietetics and pursue a career in sports nutrition.
