LOCK HAVEN –Matthew Muthler and Ryan Miller of the Lock Haven men’s outdoor track and field team were both named Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Spring Top 10 award recipients.

The duo are the only teammates to win the 2025 Men’s Spring PSAC Top 10 award. Additionally, Muthler and Miller are just the second set of teammates in Lock Haven history to be named to the prestigious list and the first since Men’s Wrestling Hall of Famers Charlie Benneman and Mike Maney (2003-04).

Miller is now a three-time PSAC Top 10 award recipient after bringing home the honor in 2023-24 (Outdoor) and 2022-23 (Indoor). Muthler is also a three-time winner after sweeping the indoor and outdoor honors as a senior and winning the outdoor award in 2022-23.

Muthler becomes the third athlete to bring home a pair of PSAC Top 10 awards in the same academic year in Lock Haven history. Muthler and Miller join Chris Robson as the only Bald Eagles to earn the prestigious honor three or more times in a career.

Two-time PSAC Champion, PSAC and Lock Haven record holder and Indoor track and field All-American, Muthler earned his second All-American honor of the season after finishing eighth with 7073 points in the decathlon at the 2025 Outdoor National Championship.

Muthler earned his trip to nationals by setting a conference record of 7355 points in the decathlon at the 2025 PSAC Outdoor Championship.

This winter, Muthler won the heptathlon at the PSAC Indoor Championship and finished 12th at the NCAA Championship, becoming a two-time All-American as a senior. Muthler was named the Field Athlete of the Year at the PSAC Indoor & Outdoor Championship meets.

A two-time PSAC Outdoor Individual Champion, Miller joined Muthler as an All-American at the 2025 NCAA DII Outdoor Championship. Miller saved his best for the national stage and posted a blazing time of 46.58 in the preliminary round (10th), just .01 seconds behind the Lock Haven and PSAC record. The duo also secured All-Atlantic Region honors during the indoor and outdoor season.

Muthler and Miller finished their careers cemented as two of the greatest athletes in Lock Haven track and field history.

The Top 10 Awards, selected by the PSAC’s athletic communications professionals, recognize student-athletes who distinguish themselves in the classroom, as well as in the arena of competition. The conference designates Top 10 Award winners after each of the sports seasons: fall, winter and spring.

To be a candidate for the Top 10 Awards, a student-athlete must have achieved a minimum of a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (as of Fall 2009 awards) and must be a starter or key reserve with legitimate athletic credentials.
