Spring is the time when many Native athletes dust off their running shoes and compete in events like the 400 meter sprint, hurdles, relay, high jump, and shot put. Today on Native America Calling, we speak with Kutoven “Ku” Stevens (Yerington Paiute), cross country runner at the University of Oregon; Ahli-sha Stephens (Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians), Cherokee High School head track and field coach and head cross country coach (boys and girls); Tiajhae Nez (Navajo), Haskell Indian Nations University sophomore and long distance runner; and Jeremy Bockus (Blackfeet), Haskell Indian Nations University freshman and middle distance runner.
