It is my great pleasure to announce that A1C Emily Shertzer, an instrumentalist with the Air Force Band of the Mid-Atlantic, was chosen as the Air Force Female Athlete of the Year for 2011. She has had many accomplishments this year, but to highlight two: She had the fastest female time in the history of the All-Guard Marathon Team with a time of 2:54. She also led the Air Force 2011 Armed Forces Marathon Championship when she finished with a US Olympic Marathon trials Qualifying Time of 2:45. We will be presenting her plaque and jacket during March UTA weekend.
