Lower Columbia College Red Devils

Michelle (DeVries) Mury was a two-sport athlete at Lower Columbia College where she was a standout in basketball and volleyball. It was a knee injury while chasing a ball out of bounds in the 1986 season that ended her athletic stint at LCC, but she went on to greatness in another sport at the next level. Michelle graduated from Kelso High School in 1985, a three sport athlete who always had skill to go along with determination.  That resolve was tested with her injury at LCC. She then attended Seattle Pacific University in Seattle where she turned out for track and field. Under the tutelage of Olympic and SPU coach Ken Foreman, Mury went on to capture the 1990 NCAA Division II javelin championship and All-American honors.
