| Transcript | By Brad Blume Sports Information Director South Dakota School of Mines RAPID CITY ---- The South Dakota School of Mines women's track team received quite a boost recently with the signing of, not one, but two quality recruits from Lyons, Colo., to join the Lady Hardrockers for the 2009-10 season. SD School of Mines head track coach Jerry Schafer is pleased to announce Grace and Marcie Hinker as the newest Hardrocker track standouts. "Grace and Marcie bring a lot of experience, success and versatility to our women's team, " Schafer said. "We believe they will be big contributors to the success of the Lady Rocker track and field team." The Hinker sisters have some similar athletic traits but also have vast differences when they perform on the track. Both Grace and Marcie compete in the pole vault. Last year Grace received third at the Colorado State track meet, clearing a height of 9-feet-0-inches while Marcie earned fifth place at State with a vault of 8- 6. Grace also competes in the sprints and relay events and excels in the high jump as well. At last year's state meet she earned fifth place in the high jump after clearing 5-1. Marcie was on the Colorado State championship 4-x800-meter relay team last year as well as a part of the Colorado State third place 4x400 team. She also competes in the long jump and triple jump. "They are a great addition to the Hardrocker program, " Schafer added. While attending SD School of Mines Grace is looking at a degree in Civil or Mining Engineering while Marcie is interested in Civil or Mechanical Engineering.
