Iowa State senior runner Lisa Koll has won the Honda Sports Award for track and field.
The Honda Awards are given each year to female athletes in 12 NCAA sports.
Koll is a nine-time All-American. She also holds the college record and the sixth-fastest time by an American woman in the 10,000 meters.
She is eligible to be nominated as one of three finalists for Collegiate Female Athlete of the Year.
After redshirting the cross country season because of an injury, Koll says she was honored to receive the award out of such a talented pool of runners.
The awards began in 1976 as part of the Collegiate Women Sports Awards program.
