Meet buffsthrows, mattward.13! 🏅 Son of Shelly and George Ward, and sibling to Chris (26), John (28), and Kait (22) - who's making waves in throws at Idaho State University! Chris is a high school teacher and middle school jump coach. Matt graduated Cum Laude with a BS in Computer Science from the University of Montana. 🎓 

A 2x regional qualifier, this 6'5 thrower from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, is now pursuing a master's in Mechanical Engineering. 🛠️

Matt holds the Buffs record in the Hammer throw and has his sights set on a future in robotics, preferably space-related like working on a space rover. 

🌌 When he's not dominating the track, Matt plans to explore mountain biking. Fun fact: He played the Saxophone from 6th grade to sophomore year of college, even volunteering with a local jazz band in his hometown for a few years! 🎷
