The Bowerman is presented to the most outstanding male and female collegiate track and field athlete. On December 19th, Flotrack will provide the live stream of the fouth annual Bowerman Awards from Orlando, Florida.

As usual, all three finalists are more than qualified to lift the award. "The Heisman of college track and field" has a short, but storied history and reputation that will continue Wednesday night.

The three male finalists each have NCAA titles, top collegiate marks, and other odds and ends that make them Bowerman finalists.

Who deserves the 2012 Bowerman Award? You decide.
