To the victor go the spoils: Pullman's Katie Nageotte signs with Nike...


A few days after vaulting to victory at the USATF Indoor championship meet with a world-leading 16-1.25 (4.91m), Pullman’s Katie Nageotte (left/photo courtesy Katie Nageotte) announced on her social media platforms that she has signed a sponsorship deal with Nike.


The graduate of NCAA Division II Ashland University in Ohio will make her Nike debut at next week’s IAAF World Indoor Track & Field Championship meet in Birmingham, UK. She previously was sponsored by adidas.

Nageotte is one of three athletes with Washington ties competing at the world championships, along with fellow Ashland alum Drew Windle (800m) and Katie Mackey (3000m) of the Seattle based Brooks Beasts.

An absolutely fabulous competition, I just kept seeing those O going up. She seemed to be ahead of last year and making very steady progress. Getting the right coaching match can be important, and I love that she is coming from the DII level and was not that well known by many until late. Glad that she is happy with her agent and the match with Nike.
