Kansas Wesleyan

What it actually takes to run at Kansas Wesleyan

NAIA · KCAC · KS

Kansas Wesleyan signed 5 athletes for 2025-26. What follows are their real high-school marks, not a program’s published walk-on line — the honest answer to “would they recruit me?”

Kansas Wesleyan is a 859-student private campus in Salina, KS and competes in the KCAC. Young, Garrett leads a staff of 6 covering 1 event group.

“Median” is the middle signee’s PR; “range” runs from the fastest to the slowest mark in the class. 1500m/Mile and 3000m are converted to 1600m/3200m for comparison. Pulled from verified meet results.
