Jasmine Moore Of Florida Sets Collegiate Record In NCAA Triple Jump

AUSTIN -- Jasmine Moore of Florida dominated the women's triple jump, setting new collegiate, meet and facility records en route to winning her second straight title at the 2023 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Mike A. Myers Stadium.

Moore, who jumped 14.78m/48-6 on her second attempt broke the collegiate record of 14.62m/47-11.75 set in 2018 by Keturah Orji of Georgia. Her mark broke Orji's. meet record of 14.53m/47-8 set in 2016 and the stadium record of 14.48m/47-6.24 set in 2017 by Tori Franklin.

"I've been wanting to get it for a long time," Moore said of the record. "Keturah Orji was someone I looked up to so much. So, to finally knock that down and finally get the school record in the triple jump, that's been tough. And so, just lots of prayer and lots of confidence get to today."

The junior is the first collegiate woman to break 48 meters in the event.

Ackelia Smith of Texas, who beat Moore to win the long jump title on Thursday, finished second with a jump of 14.54m/47-8.5. 

Moore's difficulties on Thursday had her on edge coming into the triple jump, even though it is the stronger of her two disciplines.

"Yeah, I was definitely very nervous today, especially coming after long jump and getting third," Moore said. "That was really tough for me, so just honestly being in the right mindset coming in today was the big thing. I just needed to have confidence the whole entire competition, so I was just trying my best to stay calm.

"It's definitely a mental boost just knowing that you can jump far, that you're fast and everything like that," she added. "Of course, everyone loves to win. I needed to just kind of forget about long jump. I didn't want to be so stuck on that one event that I ruined this event."

Ruta Lasmane of Texas Tech finished third with a jump of 14.21m/46-7.5.
