Hawaii's Hallee Mohr qualifies for Olympic trials

University of Hawaii track and field standout Hallee Mohr will continue her strong season at the U.S. Olympic trials at Hayward Field in Eugene, Ore.

Mohr earned All-American status at the NCAA outdoor track and field championships last week after finishing 11th nationally in discus throw.

Mohr will attempt to qualify on June 24, the date of the discus qualification.

A UH athlete has not competed at the U.S. Olympic trials since Amber Kaufman in 2008.
