Millersville

Christina Carpenter Minder dominated sprint races from 2003-05, winning five PSAC Championship events for the Marauder track and field team. Twice Minder was named the PSAC Outdoor Championships Athlete of the Meet, and she totaled 10 career All-PSAC finishes while recording some of the top times in program history.
 
Minder's first breakthrough at the PSAC level came at the 2002 PSAC Indoor Championships where she finished third in both the 55-meter dash and the 200-meter dash. Minder won her first PSAC Championship in the spring of 2003, running a 12.29 to win the 100-meter dash. She also finished as the PSAC runner-up in the 200.
 
She started her junior season of 2003-04 with runner-up finishes in both the 55 and 200 at the PSAC Indoor Championships. Her 7.30 in the 55 is still the fourth-fastest time in program history. That same season, she ran a school record 200 time of 25.94 that stood for seven years. In the outdoor season, Minder became just the second Marauder to win a PSAC Championship in both the 100 and 200. She ran a career-best 11.91 in the 100 and a career-best 24.34 in the 200 on her way to being named both the PSAC Outdoor Championships Track Athlete of the Meet and the overall championship athlete of the meet. Minder's 11.91 was the fastest time at Millersville in 20 years and remains the third fastest in program history. Minder's 200 time was also the fastest in 20 years and ranks second at Millersville to this day. Her times in both races earned her a spot at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
 
As a senior, Minder took second at the indoor championships in the 200, and then repeated as the PSAC Outdoor Championships Track Athlete of the Meet. She became the first—and remains the only Marauder—to repeat as winner of the 100 and 200. She ran an 11.93 in the 100 and a 24.73 in the 200, and qualified for the NCAA Outdoor Championships for a second consecutive season.
 
Minder capped her career with the Elwood J. Finley Award, given to the top Millersville senior athlete.
 
Minder received a bachelor’s degree in education in 2005.
