EUGENE, Ore. – Men's tennis senior Jayson Amos and senior Maggie Schmaedick of cross country and track and field have been named Oregon's two Tom Hansen Conference Medal winners, the Pac-12 announced on Tuesday.
A conference medal is awarded annually to each member institution's outstanding senior male and female student-athlete based on the exhibition of the greatest combination of performance and achievement in scholarship, athletics and leadership. Conference medal winners have been named every year since the 1960-61 academic year. In 2009, the Pac-12 renamed the award the Tom Hansen Conference Medal in honor of Hansen, who retired in 2009 after serving for 26 years as commissioner of the Pac-10.
