Aggie Women Place Third at NCAA Outdoor Championships
Jun 15, 2025 | Track and Field
EUGENE – The Texas A&M women's track & field team secured a third-place finish at the NCAA Championships Saturday evening at Hayward Field. An individual national champion and runner-up finisher highlighted the individual performances.
Winny Bii headlined an action-packed day, capturing A&M's first NCAA title in the women's triple jump. The junior hit the ground running, leaping 13.96m/45-9.75 on her first attempt to capture the lead. Bii's opener held throughout the entire competition, landing her at the top of the podium for the championship crown.
The women's 4x100m relay quartet of Jasmine Harmon, Camryn Dickson, Bria Bullard and Jasmine Montgomery set the tone on the final day of the season and put the team on the scoreboard, taking third in the event with a season-best time of 42.89.
Debora Cherono held the momentum for the Maroon & White, as the standout steeplechase freshman broke her own school record for the fifth time this season with a time of 9:32.10 to place fifth in the event, dropping her semifinal time by a staggering 10 seconds.
Jaiya Covington continued to separate herself as one of the nation's premier short hurdlers, as the Aggie junior ran out of lane seven in a stacked event and crossed the line in 12.93. This was Covington's first NCAA outdoor individual final and delivered eight points to the total.
Yakushina capped off her historic rookie campaign, as she finished third in the women's heptathlon with 6,058 points. The freshman added on to her day one total (3,492 points) starting in the long jump where she won the event with a personal-best leap of 6.47m/21-2.75 which jumped her to No. 4 in the A&M record books. She followed that up with ninth in the javelin (40.38m/132-6), leaving only the 800m on deck. Yakushina concluded her seven-event competition placing ninth in the 800m in 2:14.93 to ensure her third-place overall finish.
Montgomery added her second First Team All-America honor of the evening in the 200m, as the junior clocked a time of 22.61 which was good for fifth in the final.
Concluding the championships for the Maroon & White was the 4x400m team consisting of Latasha Smith, Dickson, Montgomery and Jaydan Wood. The group ran a season-best time of 3:27.11 to capture fourth in the event and secure the final five points for the women's team to place third in the championships with 43 points.
