Brianne Theisen Signs with Doyle Management Group-

Oregon Ducks track and field standout takes the next step in her career

 

Atlanta, Ga. – Canadian Olympic hopeful Brianne Theisen has taken the next step since finishing her track and field career at the University of Oregon. After winning seven NCAA titles, including three in the heptathlon, Theisen has signed with Atlanta-based sports agency Doyle Management Group (DMG).

 

DMG Founder and CEO Paul Doyle is proud to add Theisen to his star-studded client list.

 

“Brianne exemplifies the type of person that we enjoy working with. She is as quality a person as she is an athlete, and she will be a force in the sport for years to come.”

 

Theisen, a Humboldt, Sask. native, is happy to be joining her fiancé, American decathlon star Ashton Eaton, on DMG’s roster along with decathletes Trey Hardee and Bryan Clay.

           

“I’ve had a feeling in my heart that DMG was who I wanted to be with. They have done a great job with Ashton the last couple of years and really no one is better at managing multi-event athletes than they are.”

 

At the 2012 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, Theisen passed Olympic legend Jackie Joyner-Kersee on the all-time NCAA heptathlon list with 6440 points.

 

Theisen will compete at the Canadian Track and Trials in Calgary, Alberta on June 27-28. She enters the meet as the favorite having already met the Olympic “A” standard.

 

No stranger to international competition, Theisen represented Canada at the 2009 IAAF World Championships in Athletics where she finished 15^th.
