TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Indiana State men's track & field's Will Staggs picked up his third Mark Clinkenbeard Construction ISU Student-Athlete of the Week award as announced by the athletic department on Monday afternoon.
 
Staggs earns the honor for the third time in the 2023-24 season after another record-setting performance at the Meyo Invitational.
 
Staggs broke Indiana State's school record in the pole vault at the Meyo Invitational, becoming the first athlete in program history to clear 18 feet in the event. The Vincennes, Ind. native cleared marks of 5.05m (16-06.75), 5.20m (17-00.75), 5.35m (17-06.50) and the record-breaking mark of 5.50m (18-00.50), all on his first attempts, on his way to a first-place finish in the event.
