Kirsten Kilker, daughter of Barb and Jason Kilker has been honored as the April Track Athlete of the Month for throwing. Kilker has been doing track since 7th grade but has been a thrower since 8th. She loves track because she thinks it’s “the most chill sport you can do” and because “everyone supports each other.” She also likes throwing because it’s a physical strong suit for her. To Kilker, being an Athlete of the Month means that “the coaches see that (she’s) improving and doing well.” She believes she was nominated because the ADM track team has “never had girl throwers that could throw and win points for the team,” and now “the team has three (girl) throwers that can win points.”

In honor of her achievements, Core Physical Therapy has donated $100 to the ADM scholarship fund.
