STILLWATER – Oklahoma State distance runner Brian Musau was named U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Midwest Region Outdoor Track Athlete of the Year, the organization announced Friday.
Musau completed one of the best athletic seasons in Oklahoma State history, claiming his third career NCAA title and second national title of the athletic year in the 5,000 Meters at the NCAA Outdoor Championships last week. He defended his NCAA indoor title in the 5K with another dominant performance at the outdoor championships, taking the lead with 400 meters to go and fending off late challenges from Villanova’s Marco Langon and New Mexico’s Habtom Samuel.
Musau is the third Cowboy to be named USTFCCCA Midwest Region Outdoor Track Athlete of the Year, joining fellow distance runners German Fernandez in 2009 and Alex Maier in 2022. Musau also won the Midwest awards during both the cross country and indoor seasons, completing the trifecta with his outdoor award.
