Iowa State's Logan Schneider jumps from football to track, field

Freshman Logan Schneider runs the 60-meter hurdles during the Big 12 Indoor Championship at Lied Recreation Athletic Center on Feb. 27, 2015.

ISU men's track and field hurdler Schneider made his early post-high school plans around football, the sport he originally played. But little did he know, he would become an impact walk-on hurdler at a Division I school.

The linebacker was no stranger to success in his high school career. His football team at Sycamore High School was the top-ranked team in Illinois and the high school track and field team that he would eventually compete with had some of the best athletes in the state.
