BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- Trent Beseth (Stanchfield, Minn./Cambridge-Isanti HS) earned his second MIAC Outdoor Athlete of the Week honor of the 2026 season.

Beseth reached finals in three throwing events at two meets last week, recording four first-place finishes and a pair of national top-15 marks along the way. Before taking top honors in the shot put, discus, and hammer at the Dan Conway Classic on 4/25, Beseth won the shot put with a heave of 18.14 meters (59' 6.25") at the University of Minnesota's Gary Wilson Invitational on 4/22.

That mark now ranks fifth in NCAA Division III this season. Beseth also recorded the 13th-best hammer throw in Division III with a distance of 57.70 meters (189' 4") at the same meet. His discus mark of 47.87 meters (157' 1") was good for seventh overall and second among D-III competitors at the meet.
