She gutted out the final lap to capture her first SEC title, but was diagnosed with a slight tear of the left plantar fascia. Two weeks ago, while leading comfortably at the SEC Championships, Schneble felt a twinge in her foot with a lap remaining in the 5,000. If healthy, she is the favorite at 5,000 meters, owning the fastest qualifying time of 16:08.18. Last year, she ran well at the Regionals, narrowly missing a chance to qualify for the NCAA Championships. A persistent hip injury will keep sophomore Amanda Mullins-Hall out of the 100-meter hurdles. While Hahn and Schneble will be joined at the meet by Commodore distance runner Ashleigh Wetzel, another teammate is not expected to compete. Schneble has been less active in training because of a left foot injury sustained at the end of her SEC 5,000-meter victory. Hahn has practiced well this week after coming down with an abdominal strain at the SEC Championships.

Hahn, a junior from Clinton, Tenn., and Schneble, a sophomore from Hendersonville, N.C., are top contenders in their specialties, but enter the competition with questions due to injuries. Three Commodores, including recent Southeastern Conference individual champions Josie Hahn and Erika Schneble, will compete this weekend in the NCAA Mideast Regional Track and Field Championships at Louisiana State University.
