EVANSTON -- Prior to this winter, Jack Mitchell had been a two-sport athlete at Northwestern, playing kicker during football season while also serving as a starting outfielder on the baseball team. Mitchell has experienced his fair share of clutch moments while playing both sports. In football, he has kicked game-winning field goals to beat Notre Dame in 2014 as well as against Penn State this past season. In baseball, he drove in the Wildcats' game-winning run last season in a 1-0 win over Maryland in 2015 and also hit a walk-off, pinch-hit single in 2014 against Chicago State. But now, Mitchell is giving up one of those sports in hopes of making more memories for next season.
