Husky javelin thrower Carson Fuller admittedly was a little nervous about his upcoming performance this week.
No, not the NCAA West Regionals in Austin, Texas, in which Fuller will participate Thursday on the heels of his stunning Pac-12 championship two weekends ago. Sure, that’s a huge event in the college track world — a berth in the NCAA meet is at stake — but not as stressful as the one Fuller attended in Washington, D.C.
On Saturday, Fuller flew to the nation’s capital for the American Thoracic Society’s international conference — an equally huge event in the world of respiratory medicine.
