Track and field athletes around the state are getting a burst of Minnesota heat this week with temperatures in the 80s and 90s. For Division II National Qualifiers, this heat wave will likely continue as they travel to San Angelo, Texas for the National Meet. The meet will begin Thursday morning at Angelo State and conclude on Saturday night.
Yes/No has already followed Heather Dorniden and Laura Hermanson and this week will center on their former MN high school rival in the 400 meters: Kristi Buerkle.
Yes/No: Will Kristi Buerkle finish in the top 8 in the 400 meters at D2 Nationals this week?
Note: Kristi Buerkle is an All-State 400 meter runner from Forest Lake now running at Bemidji State. The sophomore standout finished 7th at D2 indoor nationals in the 400 meters earning an All-American award. Buerkle is ranked 4th going into the meet with a seed time of 55.26

My Answer: Yes
Last week’s question was “Will Heather Dorniden score 13 or more points in individual events (1500 and 800) at the Big Ten Championship this weekend?” The correct answer was “No” as Dorniden scored 12 points with a second in the 800 and a fifth in the 1500. Another difficult question for contestants – only 3 people got the question right.
