Ayden Owens may be the best athlete on campus at the University of Arkansas. And it’s something he’s been training for his entire life. Owens developed a love for multiple sports as a kid, and had dreams of playing for his home state Pittsburgh Steelers. But Owens found a different outlet for his competitive nature…on the track AND in the field. His hard work paid off, and he’s now the collegiate record holder in the decathlon. But along with his success came a difficult choice: Who to represent on the international stage…the United States, or his family’s homeland of Puerto Rico. The decision has paid off for Owens, who has lofty Olympic aspirations. And after stops at USC and Michigan, he’s found a home at Arkansas, a place that knows a thing or two about producing Olympians.
