🔼 Lacin’ Em Up. This is what it’s all about. This is why all the work was put in.

The NCAA Championships in Tracktown.

Competition begins Wednesday with three Cowboys competing. Alex Stitt opens in the 1,500 meter semifinals, with the top five athletes in each heat plus the next two fastest time qualifiers advancing to Friday's final.

Later in the night, Blair Anderson is making his NCAA Championship debut in the Long Jump after shattering his personal best with his leap of 7.93 meters at the NCAA West Prelims.

Rounding out the first night of action is returning NCAA bronze medalist Denis Kipngetich in the 10,000 Meters.

🔼 Going Global. Before getting accustomed to Stillwater, new Cowgirl Achol Akot has some summer travel plans.

On Tuesday, Akot was named to Team Canada for the FIBA 3×3 Women’s Series Vienna Stop 2025 this weekend.

🔼 Senior Salute. Senior Isaac Becroft added one more line to his OSU resume as he was named the 2025 Central Region Intercollegiate Tennis Association Senior Player of the Year on Tuesday morning.

The award honors the senior student-athlete who had the best year among all student-athletes in his/her class in his/her region. Becroft takes home a regional ITA Award for the second-straight year, last year picking up the ITA Most Improved Player for the Central Region.

On the court, Becroft leaves OSU with All-America status in doubles, All-Big 12 first-team distinctions in singles (2025) and doubles (2024) and All-Big 12 second-team honors in singles in 2024. Additionally, he was named the 2024 ITA Central Region Most Improved Player and was named the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year in 2023.
