NEW ORLEANS (March 27, 2025) – Senior thrower Daniel Reynolds and the University of Wyoming track and field program debut on The Bowerman post-NCAA Watch List, announced by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association on Thursday.
After winning the NCAA weight throw title with a meet record and the collegiate No. 2 All-Time throw of 25.08 meters, Reynolds finds himself as the first Wyoming student-athlete on The Bowerman Watch List. Last Watch List update, he earned votes, but not enough to make the Top-10.
Other members on the list include Mykolas Alekna (California), James Corrigan (BYU), Nathaniel Ezekiel (Baylor), Simen Guttormsen (Duke), Carli Makarawu (Kentucky), Gary Martin (Virginia), Tarik Robinson-O’Hagan (Ole Miss), Ethan Strand (North Carolina) and Ja’Kobe Tharp (Auburn).

THE BOWERMAN
The Bowerman, collegiate track and field’s highest honor, is bestowed each year to the top male and female athlete in NCAA and NAIA track and field. Bill Bowerman, the award’s namesake, was a track and field coaching legend at the University of Oregon from 1949-72, went on to coach the 1972 Olympic Team and led the formation of the United States Track and Field Federation.
Votes are compiled by members of The Bowerman Advisory Board, a group of national and regional media members, track and field statisticians, NCAA administrators, past winners and Presidents of affiliated organizations. Voters produce a Top-10 list of the “who’s who” in collegiate track and field.
The next voting update will be released on April 17.
