Ian Comer of Mulvane was chosen as the Mulvane Shelter Athlete of the Month for October. Comer plays football, basketball and baseball for the Wildcats.

Last season, he was an honorable mention all-league linebacker in football, second team all-league forward in basketball and a second team all-league outfielder in baseball.

“It is an honor being chosen as the Mulvane athlete, especially since I am surrounded by many other talented players that could have been chosen from Mulvane,” Comer said.

Much of Comer’s motivation this football season has come from his team’s struggles last season, where Mulvane went 1-8, which was its first losing season 2014.

“The football season has been going well,” Comer said. “I feel like our team is clicking and playing some of our best football right now. I wanted to redeem ourselves from the terrible season we had last year.”

Ideally, Comer wants to play football or basketball in college, but if the right offer does not come along, he wants to go to the University of Kansas and study to be a physician.
