The CITIUS MAG Podcast | A Running + Track and Field Show

Three more collegiate records fell on the final day of the 2026 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, bringing the total for the most insane week anyone has ever seen to nine.

Dejanea Oakley and Adaejah Hodge, who are roommates for the week, both smashed the NCAA records for 400m and 200m, respectively, putting up 20 points for the eventual team champion Georgia Bulldogs. Oakley covered one lap in 48.79, while Hodge bounced back from a 100m defeat to run 21.68.

After missing Athing Mu’s collegiate record by just .01 at Regionals, Sanu Jallow of Arkansas made sure there were no questions about the fastest half-miler in NCAA history, winning the 800m national title in 1:56.85.

At the conclusion of 21 events, Georgia managed to put 50 points on the board to sweep the indoor and outdoor season titles.
