The Spring Arbor University women's track & field team added a standout student athlete to their roster when the Lady Cougars landed Brianna Devine of Alma, Michigan.  Devine, a four year varsity letter winner in Cross Country and Track & field for Alma High School, earned All-Conference awards in both sports along with Competitive Cheer. 

Last year in Devine was named Female Athlete of the year along with the recipient of the Dave Peters' Coaches Award.  Devine is a five time winner of the Alma High School Sportsmanship Award and Four Year team captain in Cross Country and two year team captain in track.

Devine was a highly active student-athlete with involvement with her church, Student Council, Youth for Christ Student Leadership team, Youth Advisory Council, Church of God student leadership program, and other activities as well as missions trips to Honduras, and working the nursery and Children's Church at Trinity Church.
