SIOUX FALLS – For the second straight week, Augustana College’s Luke Baltrusch has been selected the North Central Conference men’s track and field athlete of the week. He shares the honor with Scott Fiksdal of Minnesota State University, Mankato.
Baltrusch, a senior from Colorado Springs, Colo., won the 3,000-meter run at the Graphic Edge Division II Challenge in Vermillion. His time of 8:26.77 set a school record, eclipsing the previous mark of 8:31.24 set in 1992 by Carl Fritz.
