Incoming Greensburg Central Catholic sophomore Corinn Brewer has had a productive offseason in track and field.

Brewer, who placed third in the 1,600-meter run and seventh in the pole vault and 800-meter run at last year’s PIAA Championships, came away a four-time All-American at the recent AAU Junior Olympic Games in the 15-16 age group.

Brewer won the 2,000-meter steeplechase, took second in the 3,000-meter run and finished eighth in both the heptathlon and pole vault.

She also posted a fourth-place finish in the pole vault at the New Balance Nationals.

Brewer’s father, Mike, is the track and field coach at GCC and also coaches the Valley Speedsters Track Club.
