2024 OU T&F Outdoor Season Highlights
Eight Sooners are currently ranked in the top 16 in the nation in their respective events.
Paige Low broke the discus school record with a 58.40m (191'7") toss at the Rock Chalk Classic. This mark is 13th-best in the nation and first in Big 12. At the same meet, Low secured a career-best in the shot put, registering 16.97m (55'8.25"), improving her position at No. 6 in OU outdoor history and fourth in the Big 12.
Freshman Thobias Cheruiyot broke the 10,000-meter-run school record at the Stanford Invite on March 30 with a 28:35.80 time.
BJ Green, Big 12 indoor triple jump champion and NCAA Indoor First-Team All-American, currently holds the best distance of 16.76m (55'20") in the country, achieved at Mt. SAC Relays. This mark also bumped Green up to No. 2 in OU's outdoor all-time list.
In the heptathlon, combined events duo Pippi Lotta Enok and Angel Richmore grabbed top-eight scores in the nation at Mt. SAC Relays. Enok recorded 6,011 points, third in the country and Richmore registered 5,777, eighth in the NCAA.
Four-time All-American pole vaulter Olivia Lueking grabbed the sixth-best mark in the nation so far this season at the John Jacobs Invitational, clearing 4.45m (14'7.25"). Lueking looks to add a third Big 12 outdoor title after winning the pole vault in 2022 and 2023.
