EUGENE, OREGON – Alexandria graduate Mya Lesnar was already a national champion before the 2025 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships, having won the 2024 NCAA Division I Indoor shot put national title. On Thursday, Lesnar, a senior at Colorado State, had one last chance to become an outdoor national champion.

The last Rams outdoor national champion, Loree Smith, won the hammer throw in 2005. And Lesnar was joined by two other throwers at this week’s meet: Kajsa Borrman was 21st in the hammer earlier Thursday and Klaire Kovatch will throw in the discus on Saturday.

Colorado State's Mya Lesnar placed her name in the history books by winning the Division I shot put national title at the 2025 NCAA Championships. Lesnar, the daughter of WWE and UFC star Brock Lesnar, won the first outdoor national championship for the Rams since 2005 when Loree Smith won the hammer throw.
