TIA WINS!!!

In a new school record of 7.98 seconds, Tia won the NCAA Indoor 60m Hurdles title tonight in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Utilizing a great start out of the blocks, Tia grabbed the lead at the first hurdle and fought back all challengers to win with a great lean at the tape.

With another competitor pulling even over the final hurdle, Tia willed herself to the finish line, leaving no doubt that she would not be denied this day.

It was years of hard work, of training and drilling, combined with great talent that got Tia to the last hurdle in a position to win. It was all heart that got her to the finish line first.

And it was awesome to see!

A huge congratulations to both Tia and her coach!
