Silver Lake College Women's Cross Country

Roberts led the teams from 2010 to 2013, and returned as head coach in 2015. His goals for the team include building program numbers, maintaining team academic excellence (as evidenced by multiple USCAA Academic All-Americans in recent years) and having runners represent Silver Lake College in postseason competition. Coach Roberts is a 1996 graduate of Roncalli High School in Manitowoc. He earned a B.A. in History and a minor in Secondary Education from UW-Green Bay (2001), and an M.S. in Student Personnel Administration from Concordia University Wisconsin (2008).  He also has coached and officiated various sports at the high school and junior high school levels.  Coach Roberts also serves as Silver Lake College's Assistant Director of Admissions-Office Operations. Taylor Blattner is a former Silver Lake College cross country standout who earned her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theology in May 2015.  She joined the Lakers as an assistant coach for the men's and women's cross country teams in 2015.  "It brings me much joy to be back on campus as the assistant cross country coach," Coach Blattner said. Her passion for cross country began in eighth grade, when her mother signed her up for the sport.  "Little did I know I would find so much happiness in running competitively," said Coach Blattner, who competed in cross country for Green Bay Preble High School before attending Silver Lake College. She strives to "not only push our student-athletes to be the best runners they can be, but also inspire them to be the best person they can be."
