Freshman breaks school record and runs third fastest collegiate time by a rookie
LUBBOCK, Texas – Freshman Indya Mayberry had quite the collegiate debut, dropping the fastest 60m time in the world so far this year with a blistering 7.11 on the opening night of the Corky Classic at the Sports Performance Center Indoor Track on the campus of Texas Tech.
Mayberry led the field with a 7.18 to advance to the semifinal, where she broke the TCU school record and recorded the third fastest collegiate time by a freshman in NCAA history. Her mark trails only Georgia's Kaila Jackson (7.07, 2023) and Oregon's Jadyn Mays (7.09, 2022) and is tied with Texas' Teahna Daniel (7.11, 2016).
Benjamin Kirbo also saw his own school record fall with a 5.41m (17-9) jump in the pole vault. The junior has now broken the top mark three times in his Horned Frog career.
TCU's Tabitha Ngao and Graydon Morris also earned event victories. Ngao won the 800m with a time of 2:08.78, and Morris crossed the finish line first in the 3000m with an 8:13.34.
The Horned Frogs also saw top five finishes from Lloyd Frilot (800m, 1:48.10), Amari Kiluvia (60m hurdles, 8.32), Mckenzie Bailey (3000m, 10:22.99), Gabby Martin (3000m, 10:32.71), Johnson Lagat (3000m, 8:36.90), Stone Burke (3000m, 8:38.38) and Tate Underwood (3000m, 8:40.41).
Day Two of action continues on Saturday, Jan. 18, beginning at 11 a.m. CT.
