EUGENE, Ore. – The 2024-25 season officially came to a close for Utah track & field on Thursday at the 2025 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships inside Hayward Field.
Â
Utah's 4x100m relay team of Emily Rose, got the day going in Eugene, running a time of 43.86 in the second section of the event to close out their historic season. That time was just .02 away from breaking their own record that they set this year (43.85).
Â
Morgan Jensen and
McKaylie Caesar finished one after the other once again in the 10000m final with Jensen clocking in at 33:11.05 while Caesar was next to the cross the finish line in 33:34.36 for 19th and 20th-place, respectively. The pair kept pace early on with the group but wasn't able to climb their way up towards the lead group like they did at west regionals.

She is also a member of the 4x200m relay team that sits at No. 2 on the all-time list (1:40.02). Kealamakia saw her name all over the record books, sitting at No. 6 in the 100m dash (11.88 aa), No. 5 in the 200m dash (24.02 aa) and No. 8 in the 400m hurdles (58.78 aa).

She was also a part of the 4x200m relay squad that registered the third-fastest time in school history (1:40.34).

The Women of Utah will now get some much-needed rest while a select few will be competing stateside or in their home nations this summer as they look to qualify for World Championships in Tokyo (Sept. 13-21).
