Men’s Team Sixth, Green and Mullings Win at NCAA Outdoor Championships
June 14, 2025 | Track and Field
EUGENE, Ore. – The Oklahoma men's track and field team closed out the 2025 season Friday night in sixth place with 30.5 points, earning the best team finish in 28 years at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. At Hayward Field, BJ Green (triple jump) and Ralford Mullings (discus throw) secured Oklahoma's first individual national titles since 2009.
Mullings was the first to be crowned champion. He entered the day ranked No. 2 in the nation behind world record holder Mykolas Alekna of California. The Kingston, Jamaica, native initially pulled away from the field on his third attempt, breaking a 33-year-old NCAA championship meet record with a 67.70m (221'1.00") mark. Alekna would contest Mullings on his fifth attempt with a 66.77m (219'0.00") toss, but the Sooner answered with a massive 69.31m (227'3.00") on his sixth and final throw to seal the title.
With this mark, Mullings shattered his own Oklahoma program record and improved his position as the No. 2 performer in NCAA collegiate history. His 69.31m (227'3.00") mark is the ninth-farthest throw ever recorded in collegiate history. Mullings is the first Sooner in program history to earn a national title in the discus throw and he grabs the second NCAA Outdoor First Team All-America honor of his career.
Green secured the Sooners second national championship of the day with a 16.81m (55'2.00") leap on his final attempt. His entire series of jumps would have earned him first place in the field, posting four more attempts above 16.58 meters and one foul. He becomes the second triple jumper in OU history to earn an outdoor national title, making good company with school record holder and Olympian Will Claye who sealed the trophy in 2009. Green earned his second NCAA Outdoor First Team All-America award.
Fellow teammate and triple jumper Floyd Whitaker followed with a silver medal in the same event. The senior leaped a clutch personal best of 16.41m (53'10.25") on his third attempt for the second-place finish. With this mark, Whitaker moves up to No. 4 on OU's all-time performance list and is named an NCAA Outdoor First Team All-American for the first time in his career.
To close out the men's score on day three, sophomore high jumper Kyren Washington shared sixth place with Nebraska's Tyus Wilson on attempts at 2.20m (7'2.50"). He added 2.5 points to the Sooners' final score of 30.5 that also included 10 points from both Mullings and Green plus eight from Whitaker. Washington secures the second NCAA Outdoor First Team All-America honor of his tenure at OU.
Pippi Lotta Enok kicked off her campaign for a second heptathlon national title Friday morning. At the conclusion of the day, she sat in second place with 3,685 points, only 27 behind first. Enok got off to a quick start with a career-best 13.65 time in the 100-meter hurdles (1,085 points). She would go on to secure another personal record in the high jump, clearing the bar at 1.81m (5'11.25") for 991 points. The jump ranks fifth in OU outdoor history. Enok's last PR of the day came in the 200m where she clocked 24.08 for 972 points. She resumes the heptathlon Saturday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. CT, with three more events to be scored.
Four more Sooners on the women's team contend for titles Saturday starting at 2:30 p.m. CT. Live results of the meet can be viewed on Flash Results and a broadcast of the championships will air on ESPN2 at 8 p.m. CT.
