MARION, Ind. – Hannah Antkoviak won her third consecutive title in the 400-meter hurdles to lead the Olivet Nazarene University track & field teams at the 2025 NAIA Outdoor Track & Field Championships this week at Wildcat Stadium.
The senior harrier from Allegan, Mich., capped her stellar collegiate career at ONU by blitzing out a 58.94 to take down the 400-meter hurdles for the third straight season. It marked the seventh national title won by Antkoviak, the most ever won by a Tiger in program history.
The ONU women also netted points on the track through all-American finishes from Kaylah McCall and Heidi Heldt. The former notched a seventh-place finish in the 1500-meter run at 4:31.24, and the latter earned her second consecutive all-American placement in the 100-meter hurdles with a seventh-place time of 13.90.
Amanda Gustafson was the lone all-American for ONU in the field events. The sophomore thrower from Winnegabo, Ill., who came into nationals ranked 33rd in the shot put, ripped off a personal-best mark of 14.06m to place eighth overall.
Joseph Randolph and Eric White led the Tiger men at the national meet. Both Tigers bolted to all-American individual finishes before teaming up with Darrin Dussett and Noah Mack to place seventh in the 4×400-meter relay. White placed sixth overall in the 400-meter dash at 47.55 while Randolph secured the bronze in the 200-meter dash with a time of 20.84.
As a team, the ONU women racked up 15 points on the week to finish in 16th place. On the men’s side, the Tigers tallied 11 points to tie for 24th place with Campbellsville.
