The role of a freshman in collegiate athletics is often to sit back and learn. They are rarely a team’s workhorse, as the freshman year can be used to gain experience while transitioning to the collegiate stage.
For freshman Kasey Janowicz, this is not the case.
In Janowicz's first season as a Chippewa, her impact on the team has been immediate. The Bay City native has won the all-around competition in all eight meets this season entering Sunday while closing on Central Michigan’s all-around record, which has stood for 13 years.
