Three Ball State alums have stakes in this year's Olympics in Paris: former Cardinals basketball forward Mike Drews, former MAC Championship-winning linebacker Mark Parris and record-breaking swimmer Apsara Sakbun.
Sakbun, a spring 2023 graduate of Ball State, heads to Paris to represent Cambodia as she competes in the women's 50-meter freestyle. Sakbun left as Ball State as the program's record-holder in the 200-yard relay (1:31.38), 400-yard freestyle relay (3:21.74) and 200-yard medley relay (1:39.69). She finished her college career with 15 relay wins on top of her 18 career individual victories.
