HOF Class of 2000
Heather Berlin became a javelin All-American in 1992, her first year at the University of Minnesota.
She followed that with a third-place finish and her second All-American honor in 1993, and finished second at that year’s U.S. National Meet. She won in javelin at the Big Ten Championships and the Penn Relays in 1995.
As a senior, Berlin set Gopher and Big Ten records with a javelin toss of 183-2 at the NCAA Championships, bettering her previous career best by more than three feet. That gave her a second-place finish and a third career All-America designation.
Berlin was a two-time Academic All-Big Ten selection, a two-time national team member at the World University Games, and a member of Team USA.
