Three Sooners on Women’s Side Earn All-America Honors
March 08, 2024 | Track and Field
Boston – Three Sooners from the women's squad represented the Oklahoma track and field team on day one of the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships. The meet was held Friday at the TRACK at new balance in Boston.
Combined events team of Angel Richmore and Pippi Lotta Enok recorded top-nine finishes in the pentathlon for All-America honors. Olivia Lueking finished fifth in the pole vault to earn a first-team All-America award for the third consecutive season.
"Our women did an incredible job today. This is the momentum we want to build heading into day two," said head coach James Thomas. "Angel will forever be remembered as my first All-American as an OU head coach. Olivia has battled all season and it was great to watch her get another top-five finish in a highly competitive pole vault competition."
Enok and Richmore opened the day for the Sooners in the pentathlon's 60-meter hurdles. Enok clocked 8.59 for 997 points and ninth overall and Richmore registered 8.77 for 959 points and 11th overall.
Next, Richmore grabbed a 1.75 (5-8.75) mark and Enok earned a 1.69 (5-6.50) score in the high jump. Richmore stood in ninth place with 1,875 points and Enok totaled 1,839 points for 14th at the conclusion of the event.
In the shot put, Richmore recorded a season-best 14.11 (46-3.50) throw and Enok registered a career-best 12.13 (39-9.75). Richmore sat in fourth place with 2,676 points and Enok ranked 10th with a total of 2,509 points going into the long jump.
Enok then leaped to 6.16 (20-2.50) and Richmore recorded a career-best 6.04 (19-9.75) mark in the long jump. Going into the final event, Richmore was positioned in fifth place with 3,538 points and Enok stood in ninth with 3,408 points.
Enok ran for 2:21.65 in the women's 800-meter run to total 4,209 points for ninth place. Richmore clocked a personal-best 2:23.09 for a combined 4,320 points, the most in her career.
"Angel kept battling after the first two events and never gave up," stated assistant coach for combined events, Jerel Langley. "To start slightly off then finish with two personal bests shows how much she's grown mentally."
"While not Pippi's best day, there's always going to be a light at the end of the tunnel," added Langley. "We will regroup and keep working to accomplish our goals during outdoor season."
Richmore earned first-team All-America honors and Enok gained a second-team All-America award.
Junior Olivia Lueking concluded the day with fifth-place in the pole vault, registering 4.40 (14-5.25) for first-team All-America honors.
"I am very proud of Olivia. This was an incredibly tough vault competition and as usual, she put herself in position early to claim another All-American award," Langley continued.
Under Langley's guidance, Enok, Lueking and Richmore account for the all of the points scored for the Sooners on day one.
Head Coach James Thomas praised Langley, "He has done a fantastic job with our combined events and vaulters. Having three top-nine finishers in the nation is no easy feat."
Two Sooners are set to compete Saturday evening on day two of the championships. BJ Green jumps at 2:30 p.m. CT and Paige Low will throw at 4:45 p.m. CT.
