Where Are They Now Wednesday!
This week we’re featuring Justin Krabbenhoft, Selkirk Class of 2020. Justin was involved in music, basketball, football, and National Honor Society during his time at Selkirk, and even capped off his senior year by competing in a frisbee golf tournament.
After graduation, Justin began studying Business Administration at the University of Providence, where he spent two years and earned All-Conference honors in track and field. He later transferred to Lewis-Clark State College, where he posted the third-best heptathlon in program history and qualified for nationals.
Justin married his wife, Brooke, in August 2023 and briefly entered the workforce, managing a coffee shop. Soon after, the Eastern Oregon University track coach recruited him to return to competition, an opportunity Justin took full advantage of.
Since joining EOU, Justin has compiled an outstanding list of achievements, including multiple All-American finishes, conference championships, and being named CCC Most Valuable Performer and USTFCCCA NAIA West Region Indoor Field Athlete of the Year. Most recently, he was recognized as USTFCCCA National Athlete of the Week for his performances on the national stage.
Justin continues to compete at an elite level while completing his degree, and is set to graduate in June with a degree in Business Administration.
Justin credits his Selkirk track coach, Susan Vermeulen, for helping him get his start in track and field events and for encouraging him to explore multi-event competition early on, a foundation that continues to shape his success today.
We’re proud of the dedication, adaptability, and work ethic Justin continues to show, both on and off the track!
