Team Get A Grip Rider Devon Haskell Named Collegiate All-Star
Devon Haskell, a category 2 racer for Team Get A Grip Cycles, received an invitation to the Collegiate All-Stars after her performance this weekend at the NCCA National Road Championships hosted by the University of Kansas.
Haskell, riding for the University of Chicago, finished third in Saturday's hot and hilly Perry Lake Road Race and sixth in Sunday's Lawrence Criterium, garnering a fourth place in the omnium competition.
The eight members selected for the Collegiate All-Star Team will be racing together in the Nature Valley Grand Prix, the nation's premiere women's stage race. Team riders will be provided with travel, lodging, uniforms, and mechanical services for the six-day event. Funding for the team has been generously provided by Ryan Construction.
Other notable performances by Team Get A Grip riders at collegiate nationals include a 20th place by Seth Meyer in the Road Race and 22nd place by Melanie Wong in the criterium. The efforts of both Meyer and Wong contributed to Northwestern University's best ever team result at the National Championships.
