NEW ORLEANS – Following a historic season that made her a finalist for the award in 2017, Sun Devil senior Maggie Ewen is back on the Bowerman watch list for the 2018 season, the USTFCCCA announced Monday.
 
Ewen is one of 10 women to make the preseason watch list for collegiate track and field's most-prestigious award, and it is the reigning NCAA hammer throw champion's first appearance on the preseason list.
 
In 2017, Ewen didn't appear in the highly-touted group until April, after she won an MPSF title and earned two first-team All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Championships.

Ewen set the collegiate record in the women's hammer throw last season en route to her first NCAA title with a heave of 73.32m/240-7 feet. She then went on to score 11 more points for a meet-high total of 21 points, which catapulted her into the national spotlight and earned her a place in the final three at the Bowerman ceremony last month.
 
The Sun Devils open the indoor season this weekend in Flagstaff at the NAU Friday Night Duals.

The next watch list will be released on Feb. 7.
