SHE'S JUST A FRESHMAN
A freshman, Mayberry has burst onto the national scene, earning high praise on both the conference and national level. A four-time Big 12 Champion already, she swept the sprint races this season. During the indoor season, the Fort Worth native won both the 60m and 200m titles, and she followed it up with gold in the 100m and 200m at the outdoor conference championship meet to become the fifth woman in Big 12 history to sweep the conference sprints.
Mayberry also won her first National Championship, winning the indoor 200m (22.30) with the No. 7 performance in world history in the event. She has also been recognized on the watch list for The Bowerman Award, given to the most outstanding male and female track and field athletes in the nation. She looks to defend her 200m title outdoors this week in Eugene among the nation's best. It is one of three events that the freshman will compete in (100m, 200m and 4x100m relay).
SEASON RECAP
This season, TCU has seen a combined 15 school records fall. Sophomore hurdlers Amelliah Birdow (55.96) and Jayden Douglas (49.81) each lowered their own top times in the record books in the 400m hurdles. Irene Jepkemboi also took down her own mark in the javelin throw and set a new Kenyan national record in the event (58.36m), while freshman Preston Kuznof toppled the best mark in TCU history with his first collegiate throw (75.10m).
At the Big 12 Conference Championship Meet, junior Elise Dobson set the heptathlon school record with 5,338 points. Senior Llyod Frilot also took down head coach Khadevis Robinson's program record in the 800m, dropping a 1:45.79. Mayberry also lowered the women's 100m (11.03) record and posted a time of 22.30 in the 200m at the NCAA West Regional.
Distance runner Graydon Morris added the 10,000m school record to his name this spring along with lowering his own 5,000m mark. His senior teammate Stone Burke also etched his name in the history books with the top 3,000m steeplechase time by a Frog. Lastly, Ben Kirbo vaulted his way to a new school record, clearing 5.47m in the pole vault last month.
