Former Cal State L.A. NCAA Track and Field Champion Nicole Duncan to be Honored by L.A. County Board of Supervisors on August 27

Presentation honors Duncan's achievement as National Athlete of the Year

Former Cal State L.A. women’s track and field star Nicole Duncan will be honored this coming Tuesday, August 27, at the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors weekly meeting.

The presentation—recognizing Duncan’s achievement as the winner of the 2002 Honda Award presented to the Nation’s Top Female Athlete in NCAA Division II—will be made by CSULA alumnus and Fifth District Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich. Duncan was named the Honda Award winner earlier this summer at the Honda Awards banquet in Dallas.

The special presentations segment of the Board of Supervisors meeting generally begins at 9:45 a.m. and lasts no more than one hour. The meeting takes place in room 381B of the Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration Building, located at 500 West Temple Street in downtown Los Angeles.

Duncan concluded her collegiate career as the most decorated track and field athlete in Cal State L.A. history with a total of eight NCAA individual titles and 14 All-American awards in her three seasons as a Golden Eagle.
