This special edition of the Gopher Sports Spotlight takes us to the NCAA Track Prelims in Eugene, Ore., to catch up with junior Chimerem Okoroji. Okoroji has enjoyed a breakout season as a junior for the Gophers.

We talked with Okoroji on a variety of topics from her improved performance this season, to running on the 4x100-meter relay, to traveling to the NCAAs.

This week, Chim will compete in both the 100 meters and the 4x100-meter relay seeking to punch a ticket to the 2011 NCAA Championships in Des Moines, Iowa, in June.
