Alabama Women’s Track and Field Makes the Podium at the 2021 NCAA Outdoor Championships, Finishing Fourth
For the first time in more than 30 years, Alabama made it onto the podium.
The Crimson Tide women closed strong on the final day of the 2021 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships to finish in fourth place with 31 points, marking its first podium appearance since 1987. It was also Alabama's third-highest outdoor finish in program history after finishing second in back-to-back year in 1986 and 1987.
Tamara Clark led the way with a pair of top-three finishes on Saturday. She was second in the 200 meters with a 22.17, finishing just five hundredths of a second out of first. She finished third in the 100 meters earlier in the day with a 10.88. Clark along with Daija Lampkin, D'Jai Baker and Christal Mosley started the day by taking sixth in the 4x100-meter relay in a time of 43.99.
Mercy Chelangat, who took second in the 10,000 meters on Thursday to get the Tide on the scoreboard, scored again on Saturday, taking fifth in the 5,000 meters with a time of 15:33.20. Amaris Tyynismaa tallied Alabama's first individual points of the day, taking seventh in the 1,500 meters after running a 4:11.56.
