Dilling exploded onto the track and field scene in 2007 in winning the high jump at the AT&T USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Indianapolis. His clearance of 2.27m/7-5.25 bettered a field that included high jump powerhouses such as 2004 Olympian Tora Harris and two-time National Champion Jamie Nieto…It was a stage somewhat foreign to Dilling as he competed for NCAA Division II Minnesota State University-Mankato…Dilling recently finished up a career for the Mavericks that included four national titles (two indoor, two outdoor) and being named an NCAA All-American on five occasions.
