Senior distance runner Lisa Koll has been named as one of the Collegiate Women Sports Awards’ top three finalists for the Honda-Broderick Cup.
The Honda-Broderick cup is the Awards’ top honor given to the Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year.
Koll, a Fort Dodge native, recently capped her ISU track career with a double-gold performance at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, bringing first place finishes back to Ames in both the 5,000- and 10,000-meter runs. The wins were her third and fourth NCAA championships, and she is an 11-time All-American. Koll is also the collegiate record holder in the 10,000-meter.
The other two finalists are Maya Moore of the University of Connecticut’s national champion basketball team, and Megan Hodge of Penn State University’s champion volleyball team.
The winner will be announced in a ceremony to be held Monday in Los Angeles, Calif.
