2006: Nicole Standback came back to full form in 2006 and it doesn't seem like she plans on slowing down any time soon. During the indoor campaign She had a victory in the 60-meter hurdles with a time of 8.77seconds, at the BGSU Triangular. She had a slight set back the next week in the shape of a small injury but rested and came back for the All-Ohio Championships indoors and finished in third place with a time of 8.74 seconds. Her biggest feat of the indoor season was at the MAC Championships where she was seeded eighth going into the event and ended up medaling in third place with a time of 8.58 seconds, her fastest in the event since 2004 and her third consecutive year placing in the top-eight at the conference championships. During the outdoor season, Standback continued to shine her way into the record books. She had two individual victories during the course of the outdoor season (Toledo Tri-Meet and Ohio Invitational) as well as a second place finish at the All-Ohio Championships with a time of 14.18 seconds, what would have been her personal-best, but Standback didn't stop there. At the MAC Championships, she raced to the finish line in a time of 14.03 seconds in the 100-meter hurdles, setting a new personal-best as well as a third place finish for the first time in her career at the conference championships.
