2002-2005 Sun Devil Amy Hastings (track and field – USA) will be making her first Olympic appearance in 2012 after becoming the American champion at 10,000 meters at the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials.  Hastings is still the holder of the Arizona State school record at 10,000 meters with her time of 32:30.37.  Hastings ranks as one of the all-time greats to pass through the ranks in the Maroon and Gold, earning seven All-America honors for track and field and three for cross country.  Her 10 total All-America honors rank her second in ASU history.  Hastings was the 2006 NCAA Champion at 5,000-meters indoors and finished fourth earlier this year at the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials.

Ryan Whiting (track and field – USA)


July 20, 2012

2006-2010 Sun Devil Ryan Whiting (track and field – USA) earned his first Olympic bid after taking runner-up honors at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials in June.  Whiting was a six-time NCAA champion during his years at Arizona State, five of them coming in shot put competitions.  He was the 2012 world indoor champion earlier this year in Istanbul, Turkey.  Whiting was ranked fourth in the United States entering the weekend, so his inclusion on the squad was a minor upset. With his inclusion, Whiting became the first ASU Olympian in the shot put in history.  Whiting still holds the ASU school record in the shot put and, between he and Clarke, has helped ASU to win eight of the last 10 NCAA indoor and outdoor shot put titles.
