The Texas native has had a stellar collegiate season debut, taking first in each meet she has competed at. In her first appearance as a Sooner, Lueking broke the OU indoor school record in women's pole vault, clearing a 14-3.25 (4.35m) at the Arkansas Invite.
 
In her most recent outing at the Husker Invite, Lueking cleared a personal best, ultimately making the height the new school record, 14-4 (4.37m).
 
The Sooner is currently ranked No. 1 in the Big 12 for pole vault and ninth in the NCAA. In addition, Lueking is 37th in the world, No. 2 U20 and 27th all-time U20 in world indoors.
