The Kansas State basketball fan who elbowed Kansas forward Jamari Traylor in a chaotic court-storming incident Monday night has identified himself and apologized.

In a letter to the editor for the Collegian, Kansas State University's (KSU) student-run newspaper, Nathan Power wrote that he became caught up in the moment. KSU police had previously made it known on Twitter that they were looking for the person who threw an elbow at Traylor.

His statement in full:

"K-State friends, I was the individual identified as the fan who bumped Jamari Traylor during the court storm following K-State's victory over KU. I want to take this moment to share a sincere apology in breaking from the Wildcat way and stepping outside what is acceptable in the spirit of the game. Following the basketball game I simply let my emotions get the best of me in all of the chaos. In my excitement I was not careful of the people I was around. I am sorry that I made the KU basketball team-Jamari Traylor in particular-feel disrespected. By no means can I change what took place but in the future I will be aware of how emotions can impact good judgment."

Even though KSU athletic director already issued an apology to the University of Kansas and their basketball players and coaches, the school's president also wrote a letter to the editor of the Collegian. He did not apologize, as Currie already had, but asked the student body to better represent their school next time they attend a heavily-watch game.

"Good reputations are hard won and easily lost," KSU President Kirk Schultz' statement read, in part. "We believe the Wildcat Way is to create a family friendly atmosphere at all of our athletic events. Let's put on the purple and represent our university with pride in all of our upcoming athletic events."
