This also marks the third straight year that Mohr will compete at the NCAA West Regionals in the discus.

Wyllie becomes the first Rainbow Wahine triple jumper to qualify for the NCAA postseason since 2015 (Rachel Toliver) following one of the best triple jump seasons in UH history. The sophomore posted the No. 2 outdoor mark in program history at the Stanford Invitational on Mar. 30, jumping 12.77m (41-10.75) to better her fifth-best program mark of 12.69m that she posted the previous meet. Wyllie also won the MPSF indoor triple jump title in February.

UH has sent multiple athletes to the NCAA West Regional 20 times since the NCAA began regional rounds in 2003, with Hawai’i only missing out on multiple regional bids in the 2021 COVID-affected season.
