“I am super blessed to receive this award. Growing up in this community and seeing IWU from a distance was always amazing. Now being in that community and experiencing it firsthand for the past two years has been more than I could ask for. IWU has been an answered prayer, and I am honored to be a part of this school, the athletic program, and receive this award. God has moved in so many ways here and I am blessed to experience it and see it each day!”

“I am so excited for Riley to get Colescott scholarship!” Said Head Men's Tennis Coach James Gleghorn. "Riley is a phenomenal young man who represents Christ, IWU, and Grant County so well. Riley has grown so much as a Christian, player, and leader in the last two years at IWU. Next year, he will be a captain of the men's team and I look forward to working with him more closely. I can't think of anyone more deserving!"
