Atlantic multi-sport athlete Chase Mullenix signed a letter of intent Thursday to join the Iowa State Track team.  Mullenix said the recruiting process started after his junior track season.

After settling on track, Mullenix said Iowa State stood out.

Mullenix helped Atlantic to a runner-up team finish in class 3-A last spring by winning four titles.  He won the 800 meters and helped win the 4 x 800, 4 x 400 and distance medley relays.  After playing multiple sports in high school, Mullenix says he’s excited to see how much he can improve by specializing.

Mullenix plans to major in kinesiology at ISU.
