Genevieve Graff-Ermeling's unique athletic career spans 13 years and three sports.

Graff-Ermeling began her playing career in 1989 as a women's basketball player and a cross country runner. She was a member of the school's first GSAC championship team with women's basketball in 1992 and was a member of two NAIA national tournament teams.

She ranks second all-time for assists and free-throw percentage and still holds single-game and single-season records for the Lady Eagles. Graff-Ermeling also held the school record for the Cross Country 5000 meter race for nearly ten years.

Genevieve earned her undergraduate degree in 1993 and became a missionary in Japan with her husband Brad. In 2002 she returned to Concordia to earn her teaching credential and in the process, joined the CUI Track & Field team with her final season of eligibility. She went on to cement her place in history with two NAIA Individual National Championships that year, setting eight school records. Graff-Ermeling finished her career as a school-record eight-time All-American and a three-time All-American Scholar Athlete.

Currently, Graff-Ermeling is working towards her MA in Education and is teaching at Orange Lutheran High School. She continues to run, having qualified in 2004 for the Olympic trials in the 1500m. She lives in Tustin with her husband Brad.
