You’d think we’d lead with football news since there is actually football news, but this is still a Track Blog™ for another week. SO:

Congratuations are in order for star Wildcat heptathlete Nina Schultz, who yesterday was named the top under-20 athlete in Canada in 2017 by the Canadian Athletics Federation. The award recognizes Schultz’s stellar freshman season at K-State, in which she took second place in the heptathlon at the NCAA Outdoor Championships after setting a new Canadian U-20 record in the event in Manhattan in April.

Schultz will, of course, be attempting to improve on that second-place finish next weekend in Eugene.
