Border States congratulates Alex Talley, one of this week's Border States Electric Student-Athletes of the Week.
Talley, a sophomore from West Fargo, N.D., has a 3.538 GPA with a major in civil engineering. He posted personal-best and nationally ranked performances in both throwing events at the Bison Team Cup on Saturday. Talley took first in the weight throw, launching a personal-best 67-09.75 (20.67m) that ranks second in NDSU history and No. 13 in the NCAA this year. His throw of 60-10.00 (18.54m) in the shot put ranks 24th in the NCAA.
Exhibiting a stellar performance in the classroom and in competition is no easy task. It takes tireless energy, passion and personal commitment to achieve excellence. And it's this pursuit of excellence that helps the entire team succeed.
