Early MLB takeaways

One month into the Major League Baseball season, the favorites are playing as expected (for the most part), the stars are off to great starts (more or less) and the game looks as it should (except for the two minor league parks). April offers a window into the next five months, though it’s still slightly opaque — a tease for what’s ahead.

Will there be another historic Aaron Judge season? A team breaking the record for futility just one year after a single-season record for losses was established? A new standard for on-field larceny? All of that and so much more are possible, according to a wide swath of players, coaches, executives, evaluators and analysts ESPN surveyed to understand what in April was real and what was more early-season mirage.

We’ll begin with one thing that is clear enough to say definitively. And while it might not mean anything come October, for May, June, July, August and September, it’s bound to prove true.

The National League is vastly superior to the American League

This disparity was anticipated, yes, but the degree to which the Senior Circuit dwarfs the Junior Circuit in almost every way — from record to run differential to preeminence of the best teams — only reinforces the chasm between the leagues.

Currently, the NL is 224-218 with a plus-69 run differential. And that’s despite the 4-25 Colorado Rockies and their -78 run differential. The combined OPS of NL hitters is 25 points higher than that of AL hitters. They walk more and strike out less, score way more and steal copious bases comparatively and hit more home runs. In interleague games, NL pitchers have an ERA that is more than a third of a run lower than that of their AL counterparts.

There is an argument to be made that seven NL teams are better than the AL’s best team (either the New York Yankees or Detroit Tigers, who have separated themselves by the end of April), and that doesn’t even include the Cincinnati Reds, who have a five-game winning streak and the fourth-best run differential in MLB (aided by a 24-2 win against Baltimore). The NL’s magnificent seven include:

Los Angeles Dodgers: The overwhelming World Series favorites have been just all right since an 8-0 start, with injuries hammering their starting rotation and offensive struggles by third baseman Max Muncy, outfielder Michael Conforto, utility man Kiké Hernández and even shortstop Mookie Betts. And yet the Dodgers still terrify opponents because of games like Sunday, when starter Tyler Glasnow exited because of a shoulder injury and was replaced by Ben Casparius, whose fastball sat at 97 mph, topped out at 99 and complemented a slider and curveball averaging 3,000-plus RPMs of spin. The Dodgers are great because of their stars, but they’re even more dangerous because their replacements also have elite ceilings.

San Diego Padres: For a team that entered 2025 with rotation questions, the Padres have managed to post seven shutouts, the most ever for a team through the end of April. Much of it is owed to their bullpen, which owns an MLB-best 1.66 ERA and has stranded 87.8% of runners, blowing away the league average of 71%. Powered by their nasty bullpen, starters Michael King and Nick Pivetta, and Fernando Tatis Jr. going full superstar mode, the Padres have managed most of April without star center fielder Jackson Merrill and second baseman Jake Cronenworth with aplomb. Once the Padres get healthy, look out.

New York Mets: They sport the best record in MLB — and have gotten to the top of the standings despite slow starts from Mark Vientos and Brandon Nimmo, with Juan Soto still seeking his power stroke. New York’s pitching has been nothing short of brilliant, with a rotation leading MLB in ERA by nearly three-quarters of a run at 2.27. And that’s without Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas, two free agent signings who have spent the first month on the injured list. It doesn’t hurt that Pete Alonso was the best hitter in the league in April, and Francisco Lindor is doing Francisco Lindor things, too. There might not be a more electric place to watch a ballgame these days than Citi Field, where the Mets are 13-1 this season.

Chicago Cubs: The Cubs have been baseball’s best offense by a significant margin so far and achieved the exceedingly rare 40/40 month: 42 home runs and 44 stolen bases in April. Chicago’s balance isn’t just power-speed, either; it’s up and down the lineup, from Kyle Tucker starting his walk year with a flurry to Pete Crow-Armstrong‘s breakout looking real to Carson Kelly hitting better than anyone in the sport in limited playing time. The Cubs’ pitching is problematic, though, and losing Justin Steele to reconstructive elbow surgery did them no favors. But with an offense on a 977-run pace and the easiest schedule in MLB for the remainder of the season, summer and fall in Wrigley could be a lot of fun.

San Francisco Giants: The season’s biggest surprise so far, the Giants look like the Padres Lite with excellent bullpen performances elevating steadiness across all other facets of the game. Randy Rodriguez has been a revelation in a relief corps that has also seen a bounce-back from Camilo Doval, consistent excellence from Tyler Rogers and the high-octane stuff of Hayden Birdsong playing up out of the pen. The offense has been more of a mixed bag. Willy Adames has struggled at the plate, but Jung Hoo Lee is looking like a potential star and Mike Yastrzemski ihad his best start in years. San Francisco’s hitters have thrived in big spots, highlighted by Wilmer Flores ranking third in the majors in RBIs thanks to a .387/.457/.677 line with runners in scoring position.

Philadelphia Phillies: Let’s start with the good. On paper, Philadelphia remains one of the toughest teams in the NL. Zack Wheeler is the most consistent ace in baseball, Jesus Luzardo is pitching like the best version of himself, and coupled with Cristopher Sanchez‘s continued ascent, the starting pitchers all combine to make the Phillies a dangerous squad come October. Can they get there, though? The bullpen is a real issue, with the second-worst ERA in baseball (5.25) and only Jose Alvarado exceeding expectations. The bottom third of the Phillies’ lineup also needs to produce more, and the lack of home runs (24, which ranks 23rd in MLB) will catch up to their offense if it persists.

Arizona Diamondbacks: At some point, the Diamondbacks’ pitching is bound to right itself. A rotation of Corbin Burnes, Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly, Eduardo Rodriguez and Brandon Pfaadt should not have the 24th-ranked starter ERA in MLB. Thankfully for the Snakes, the offense has been elite. Corbin Carroll has turned in an MVP-caliber April, Pavin Smith might be the best platoon player in MLB, Josh Naylor is bordering elite with his swing decisions, and Eugenio Suarez leads the big leagues in home runs. With Ketel Marte back soon and Jordan Lawlar destroying Triple-A, the Diamondbacks’ offensive excellence could get even better. And as long as the pitching stabilizes, Arizona will be a team nobody wants to face now or in October.

The stolen base is back and better than ever, but offense is still meh

When MLB introduced new rules in 2023, the implementation of larger bases and limiting of pickoffs weren’t talked about as much as adding the pitch clock and banning the shift. But both have had a demonstrable effect on the game. Perhaps not quite as much as the pitch clock — nine-inning games are averaging 2 hours, 37 minutes, almost dead even with last year’s 2:36 — but the changes that have brought back the stolen base have been far more significant than those the league hoped would help juice batting average.

Last year, MLB players stole 3,617 bases, the highest number in more than a century. This April’s stolen-base total already exceeds last year’s at this time (714 to 672), and runners aren’t going to stop stealing until catchers show they can more consistently throw them out.

With a success rate of 79.5% on steals of second — and 74.8% on attempts to swipe third — runners are emboldened. Anything in excess of 75% encourages teams to keep running, and with seven teams already pilfering more than 30 bases, they are gladly obliging, turning singles and walks into “doubles” regularly.

And it’s not only the fastest players in baseball who are thriving. Everyone is running. Bryce Harper, nobody’s idea of a stolen-base machine, has six in 29 games after swiping seven last season in 145 games. Manny Machado hasn’t stolen more than a dozen bases since 2018; he’s already halfway there.

On the other hand, an offensive regression last year alarmed executives who were hopeful the runs-per-game jump in 2023 meant offense would continue to blossom under baseball’s new rules. It has not. The numbers from the past four seasons through the end of April:

YearBAOBPSLG2022.231.307.3692023.247.321.4052024.240.314.3852025.242.316.392Walks are up three-tenths of a percentage point and strikeouts are down by the same amount. Runs per game are flat (4.38 last year, 4.34 this year). The ball is being put in play at the highest April rate since 2017 … but defenses are turning more of them into outs than the previous two years of new-rule ball.The torpedo bat was more moment than game changerMLB torpedo bats: What you need to knowTorpedo-shaped bats have become MLB’s next big thing.

Before the torpedo bat: History of experiments &#187

Oh, the halcyon days of opening weekend, when Yankees hitters unleashed the torpedo bat and looked as if they were about to revolutionize baseball.

With this novel-looking piece of equipment that forsook the standard shape of a bat and aimed to place more wood in the part of the bat that strikes balls most frequently, the hitters who embraced the torpedo looked like world beaters. The numbers from that opening series against Milwaukee were undeniably good.

Jazz Chisholm Jr.: .417/.500/1.167, 3 HRs, 6 RBIs in 14 PA
Austin Wells: .200/.333/.800, 2 HRs, 3 RBIs in 12 PA
Anthony Volpe: .167/.286/.667, 2 HRs, 4 RBIs in 14 PA
Cody Bellinger: .400/.357/.700, 1 HR, 6 RBIs in 14 PA

Since then, those players’ numbers have been:

Chisholm: .151/.279/.312, 4 HRs, 11 RBIs in 111 PA
Wells: .212/.258/.425, 3 HRs, 14 RBIs in 89 PA
Volpe: .242/.327/.434, 3 HRs, 15 RBIs in 113 PA
Bellinger: .184/.273/.322, 2 HRs, 10 RBIs in 99 PA

The torpedo bat, it turns out, doesn’t erase weaknesses of hitters. It’s also not fool’s gold. Cal Raleigh is using it with his left-handed swing, but not his right — and seven of his 10 homers have come from the left side, where he has an OPS nearly 300 points better than the right. Steven Kwan, who might as well be the anti-Raleigh, is also swinging a torpedo and is batting .333, seventh best in the big leagues.

Because of that opening-weekend blitz, though, the torpedoes will continue to be associated with the Yankees. And it’s worth noting that Judge has continued to swing a traditional bat and not only looks like the best hitter on the planet but by a significant margin. Judge leads MLB in each of the triple-slash categories (.412/.507/.728), ranks second in RBIs (29), second in runs (28) and third in home runs (nine). He is striking out in a career-low 20.6% of his plate appearances and continues to hit the ball harder and more consistently than anyone.

Why Jeff Passan considers Aaron Judge a little underappreciated

Jeff Passan breaks down Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge’s impressive play to Pat McAfee.

The Rockies are a real threat to the 2024 White Sox as the worst team ever

Where to begin? The Rockies are 4-25. They’re in the midst of their third six-plus-game losing streak. They have not won back-to-back games. They are dreadful on the road (1-14). They are abysmal at night (1-13). They cannot touch left-handed starters (0-9). They are striking out in 28.1% of their plate appearances, which would be a big league record. Their starters’ ERA is 6.73, which would be the worst mark in MLB history. They are 15½ games behind the Dodgers after one month.

Inside Paul Skenes’ rise to superstar statusAmid the noise that comes with arriving as MLB’s next megastar, the Pirates’ ace is finding himself in the quiet. Jeff Passan &#187

The Rockies are not bad — they are tragic. And what’s worst of all is it’s not for lack of trying by their owner, Dick Monfort, who has typically carried a middle-of-the-pack payroll. They are simply a baseball team that can neither score nor prevent runs, with an offense tied for last and a pitching staff that ranks 29th out of 30 teams.

The record of 120 losses held for more than 60 years before the White Sox went 41-121 last year. Their minus-78 run differential through 29 games was exactly the same as Colorado’s, but even the White Sox were 6-23.

Considering the Rockies still have to play 46 games against the Dodgers, Giants, Padres and Diamondbacks, Colorado’s road is far more treacherous than the White Sox’s through the AL Central. So watch out, White Sox. Your reign of futility might be only as a one-year placeholder for the burgeoning champions of misery.

Jeff Passan: The Rockies spend money, they just don’t spend it well

Jeff Passan tells “The Pat McAfee Show” that the Rockies are on pace to be the worst team in MLB history, surpassing the Chicago White Sox.

The pitching woes of the Orioles and Braves have dug mighty holes

All winter, Orioles fans waited in vain for the move to replace former ace Burnes in Baltimore’s rotation. And after projected Opening Day starter Grayson Rodriguez went down because of a shoulder injury and Zach Eflin hit the injured list because of a lat strain, it has become clearer than ever that the O’s lack the sort of starting pitching to stay competitive in the AL East. Kyle Gibson, their latest effort at replacing Rodriguez and Eflin, gave up four home runs to the Yankees in the first inning of his first start Tuesday. Now 11-18, the Orioles have given up the most runs in the AL and haven’t hit their way out of the pitching deficits they continue to face.

The money Baltimore did spend this winter also has not worked out well. Tyler O’Neill (three years, $49.5 million) has been a league-average player. Gary Sanchez (one year, $8.5 million) has been awful and is hurt. Charlie Morton (one year, $15 million) has the highest ERA in the AL. Andrew Kittredge (one year, $10 million) still hasn’t thrown a pitch. Only Tomoyuki Sugano (one year, $13 million) has been passable, and his lack of strikeouts does not portend good things, though he managed to find success despite it in Japan.

Like the Orioles, Atlanta is suffering from a paucity of pitching depth. The Braves have cycled through an MLB-high 22 pitchers this season, and the loss of Reynaldo Lopez to Tommy John surgery, Spencer Strider to a hamstring injury and Joe Jimenez to knee surgery have taken a weakness and made it worse. Things would be better if the Braves were hitting, but outside of Marcell Ozuna, Austin Riley and Matt Olson — who’s slugging under .400 — the juggernaut lineup of two years ago remains AWOL.

There is hope for Atlanta in the form of Ronald Acuna Jr.’s upcoming return from an ACL tear and Strider’s hamstring healing. And they’re starting to win. Since an 0-7 start, the Braves are 14-8; they’re currently 6½ games behind the Mets and only two shy of the Phillies. It’s still early, but the Braves could soon look more like the team that won the World Series three years ago.

Five pitchers who are 2025’s breakout aces

We’ve focused on the themes and teams that have shaped the first month so far. Now, we’ll turn our attention to the players who have caught our eye, for better … or worse.

Hunter Brown, RHP, Houston Astros: The quietest ace in baseball began his run of dominance early last season but is only now beginning to receive the recognition he warrants. With a fastball up to 99 mph, a vicious sinker, a swing-and-miss changeup and three more pitches, he has the arsenal to complement his moxie. He is the next great Astros pitcher.

Max Meyer, RHP, Miami Marlins: Meyer’s six-inning, 14-strikeout gem against Cincinnati illustrated what the No. 3 pick in the 2020 draft can be. His slider is one of the best in MLB and he throws it 50% of the time. Combine it with a fastball that sits at 95 mph and plays at the top of the zone and he’s primed to anchor the Marlins’ rotation with Eury Perez for years to come.

MLB Watchability IndexStar power, mammoth home runs and … cotton candy fries!? Here are baseball’s most exciting squads for 2025. David Schoenfield &#187

Shane Baz, RHP, Tampa Bay Rays: Baz sat out nearly two years after Tommy John surgery in 2022, and though he looked excellent in his return last year, there was even more in the tank. Between his 97 mph fastball and hard curveball, he has one of the best two-pitch combinations in baseball. With Shane McClanahan out, the Rays needed one of their young arms to step up, and Baz has done just that.

Matthew Liberatore, LHP, St. Louis Cardinals: Continuing the theme of post-hype prospects is the 25-year-old Liberatore, who came into camp as an underdog to win a rotation spot after spending most of last year in the bullpen. He has rewarded the Cardinals with the lowest walk rate in baseball (two in 31 innings) and complemented it with only one home run allowed. With a six-pitch mix, Liberatore has cemented himself as a fixture for a Cardinals team in need of a reimagination.

Nick Pivetta, RHP, San Diego Padres: The 32-year-old Pivetta has spent upward of a decade tantalizing evaluators with his stuff and always found himself done in by the home run ball. In 35⅓ innings this season, he has given up two homers, and three of his six outings ended after seven shutout innings. The best part of Pivetta’s game: He’s getting tremendous amounts of in-zone swing-and-miss, a testament to the quality of his stuff.

Five hitters who are 2025’s breakout bats

Corbin Carroll, OF, Arizona Diamondbacks: The 24-year-old Carroll excels at almost everything he tries, which made last year’s first-half swoon so uncharacteristic. His aggressiveness this season — Carroll’s out-of-zone and swing-and-miss percentages have rocketed up — belies an intelligent approach that’s happy to trade whiff for production. Thanks to his speed, Carroll always will be useful. But the Diamondbacks want more than that. And if he maintains anything close to his early-season line (.298/.365/.645), they’ll have a top-10 player in the game.

Pete Crow-Armstrong, CF, Chicago Cubs: The question with Crow-Armstrong was always about ceiling vs. floor. Because his glove is so good, he could carve out a plenty fine big league career as a defense-first center fielder. But Crow-Armstrong wanted to be a great player, not simply a top-flight defender. His improvements at the plate are clear not only because of the numbers but how he’s getting them. Namely, he’s making good contact on good pitches, going from an in-zone whiff percentage of 24.6% last year to this year’s 13.5%.

James Wood, OF, Washington Nationals: If Wood ever figures out how to consistently elevate the ball, he will be one of the best hitters in baseball. As is, even with an average launch angle of 3.2 degrees — the 11th lowest of 219 qualified hitters — he has managed to whack nine home runs. Five have gone to the opposite field. At 6-foot-7, Wood packs uncommon power, particularly when he goes the other way. He’s starting to get to it, an alarming prospect for pitchers who know that pounding the outside corner is simply an invitation for Wood to do what he does better than just about anyone.

Oneil Cruz, CF, Pittsburgh Pirates: It’s finally looking like the year that one of the most physically talented players in baseball evolves into one of the best. Since he debuted in 2021, the 6-foot-7 Cruz has hit the ball as hard as anyone not named Judge. This season, he is striking out less, walking significantly more, lashing home runs and stealing bases. And while his center-field defense leaves plenty to be desired, it’s a reasonable price to pay for such exceptional offensive production.

Jung Hoo Lee, CF, San Francisco Giants: Lee doesn’t hit the ball particularly hard, limiting his ultimate ceiling, so he’ll have to settle for simply being a damn good baseball player. He rarely strikes out. He plays a solid center field. He’s a natural on the basepaths. And at 26, in his first full season after a shoulder injury sustained crashing into an outfield wall last May ended his season, Lee can fulfill his destiny as the best South Korea-born player in MLB since Shin-Soo Choo.

Five players whose slow starts warrant panic

Tanner Bibee, RHP, Cleveland Guardians: His strikeouts are down, his walks way up and his home runs allowed alarming. Bibee, signed to a five-year, $48 million contract extension in spring training, added a new cutter this winter — and it’s not working. Neither, at this point, is his fastball, a slower slider and his changeup. In five starts, Bibee has generated only 39 swings and misses. For someone expected to spearhead Cleveland’s rotation, he has a lot of work to do.

The state of MLB ballparksTwo MLB teams will be playing in minor league ballparks this season. Here’s what it says about the sport. Jeff Passan »

Inside the transformation of Steinbrenner Field »

Raisel Iglesias, closer, Atlanta Braves: In 11 innings, Iglesias has given up more home runs (five) than he did in 69⅓ innings last year (four). He weathered a precipitous dip in strikeout rate last season, but his slider — always a strength — is catching too much of the strike zone and being ambushed.

Marcus Semien, 2B, Texas Rangers: Semien is a notoriously slow starter, but the lack of power and bat speed is disconcerting even for him. On top of that, he has yet to steal a base in 29 games, and though nobody would ever mistake him for Rickey Henderson, it was always the little things that made Semien such a beloved player. At 34, climbing out of an early-season hole will be that much trickier.

Anthony Santander, OF, Toronto Blue Jays: Spending the first month as a $92.5 million free agent below the Mendoza Line is tough. Doing so with a barrel rate that has cratered and only three home runs this year after hitting 44 is doubly so. Santander is not elevating the ball nearly as well as he did in 2024 — a problem Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had last year before his second-half resurgence. If the Blue Jays have any hope of contending in the AL East, they’ll need Santander to do the same.

Luis Robert Jr., CF, Chicago White Sox: The White Sox held onto Robert this winter figuring his value had reached its nadir and that they could rebuild it and move him at the trade deadline. Not only has he been a demonstrably worse hitter, his center-field defense also has plateaued. This is the ultimate change-of-scenery candidate, though with a club option for $20 million in 2026 and 2027, teams could treat Robert as more of a rental than long-term solution. With a turnaround, he could well earn it.

Women’s Discus Finals – Cierra Jackson (Fresno State) Breaks Meet Record On First Throw

We’re off and running with the first event of this last day of the 2025 NCAA Track and Field Championships.

Auburn’s Adrienne Adams and Virginia’s Estel Valeanu came out strong on their first attempts, throwing their season-best and personal best, respectively which put them at the top.

In the second round, Michaelle Valentin found success and took the top spot with a 191-8 until Adrienne Adams beat her with a 192-9.

As third attempts go around, Valentin hits an impressive 195-9 that drew the loudest applause from the crowd of the day so far. That was, until Adrienne Adams’ measurement came in at 198-8 for the top spot in flight one.

They announced the participants in flight two and began competition shortly after with Kentucky’s Sofia Sluchaninova starting things off.

Top-ranked Jayden Ulrich immediately came out swinging with a huge first throw, 197-8, to put her in second overall behind Adams. Shelby Frank’s first attempt, 198-3, launched her into second just a few moments after Ulrich.

Fresno State senior Cierra Jackson took the lead and hit the meet record with an incredible 215-11. The previous NCAA Championship record of 65.01 (213-3) was set by Jorinde Van Klinken (Arizona State) on June 12, 2021.

Rounds 4-6:

Shelby Frank earned a new personal best of 207-11 in round four, moving her up to third for the moment. You can feel the pressure mounting as the chances dwindle and more equipment ends up in the safety net.

Eventually, Alida Van Daalen would break the silence improving her 209-4 to a 213-1, just a few feet short of Cierra Jackson’s meet-breaking throw earlier today. Immediately afterward, Jackson continued to struggle throwing her third discus in a row into the net on round five.

Caisa-Marie Lindfors put up an impressive personal best of 205-3 on her 6th throw to vault herself into 4th place.

The pressure was on Alida Van Daalen for her final throw—it ended up coming in short and Cierra Jackson had officially earned the first NCAA women’s discus title in Fresno State history on her very first throw of the finals.

EUGENE, Ore. – Senior Laura Pellicoro delivered a record-breaking performance in the women’s 800-meter final at the 2025 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships this evening at Hayward Field, clocking 2:00.84 to place seventh overall and earn First Team All-American honors.

Pellicoro shattered her own school record and personal best in the final, capping off a historic season among the top mid-distance runners in the nation. The Italy native becomes one of the most accomplished student-athletes in program history, earning All-American recognition across cross country, indoor track, and outdoor track.

A three-time Cross Country All-American (2022, 2023, 2024), Pellicoro was also named to the All-Region Team and earned First Team All-WCC honors every year from 2022 to 2024. She was the 2022 WCC Co-Runner of the Year and a two-time WCC All-Academic First Team selection. As a sophomore, she was honored with the Fr. Chester Prusynski Student-Athlete of the Year award for her outstanding contributions both athletically and academically.

In indoor track, Pellicoro made history at the 2025 UW Preview, where she ran the fastest collegiate women’s 1,000-meter time ever recorded (2:37.04). She also set school records in the mile (4:25.60), 800m (2:00.92), and now holds five indoor school records across the 600m, 800m, 1000m, mile, and 3000m. She was named to the 2025 Bowerman Watch List, becoming the first Pilot ever to earn the honor, and was recognized as the USTFCCCA National Athlete of the Week in January. Pellicoro is a three-time NCAA indoor mile qualifier (2023–2025) and a three-time Second Team All-American indoors (2022, 2024, 2025).

Internationally, she claimed gold in the 800 meters at the 2023 World University Games, further establishing herself as a world-class competitor.

Outdoors, Pellicoro previously broke the school 800-meter record at the NCAA Semifinal with a time of 2:01.07 before lowering it again to 2:00.84 in the NCAA final. She made two NCAA Outdoor Championship appearances prior to this year (2022 – 800m; 2023 – 1500m).

EUGENE, Ore. – The Oklahoma women’s track and field team wrapped up the 2025 season Saturday night in 14th with 19 points at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Pippi Lotta Enok highlighted the final day of the national meet with the second NCAA heptathlon title of her career.
 
The OU men’s team also capped an impressive performance at nationals Friday night in sixth place with 30.5 points. This marks the first time in program history that both the men’s and women’s teams have finished in the top 15 at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
 
Enok headlined the fourth day of NCAAs, earning a personal best and Oklahoma school record of 6,285 points in the heptathlon for the national title. Her excellent performance broke the Estonian national record by five points and ranks No. 10 all-time in NCAA collegiate history. Enok’s score is the seventh-best count posted by an athlete in NCAA Outdoor Championships history and ranks No. 11 in the world in 2025.
 
The Estonian earned her first title in June 2023 at Mike A. Myers Stadium in Austin, Texas. At the time, Enok’s final score of 6,165 points was good for the school record and still ranks No. 18 all-time in NCAA collegiate history. The Estonian becomes one of three women in Oklahoma history to earn two outdoor national titles during their time as a Sooner. Enok, NCAA shot put champion Tia Brooks (2012, 2013) and javelin national champion Brittany Borman (2011, 2012) tie for most individual titles in program outdoor history.
 
Enok entered Saturday in second place, just 25 points behind Notre Dame’s Jadin O’Brien. In the Sooner’s first event, Enok captured a season-best 6.39m (20’11.75″) mark in the long jump for second place in the field and 972 points, helping her climb into the lead with a score of 4,657 with two events remaining. The senior held the lead through the javelin, tossing 42.89m (140’8.00″), which was good for 723 points. She secured the title on the seventh event, clocking 2:14.12 in the 800-meter run to maintain her lead with an additional 905 points.
 
The Sooner was helped by three career bests on Friday, getting off to a quick start with 13.65 in the 100-meter hurdles (1,085 points). She went on to secure another personal record in the high jump, clearing the bar at 1.81m (5’11.25″) for 991 points. The jump helps her climb to No. 5 on OU’s all-time performance list. Enok’s last PR of the day came in the 200m where she clocked 24.08 for 972 points.
 
Triple jump duo of Agur Dwol and Ashley Moore secured third and seventh place, respectively, to earn NCAA Outdoor First Team All-America awards. Dwol, the reigning NCAA indoor triple jump champion, recorded a 13.77m (45’4.25″) mark on her first attempt for the bronze medal. Moore also registered her best jump on her first attempt, posting 13.30m (43’7.75″) to conclude her collegiate career in Eugene.
 
Freshman Leah Jeruto competed in her first NCAA Outdoor Championships final, clocking 9:38.94 in the steeplechase. She finished eighth in the event, taking home an NCAA First Team All-America award and becoming the first Sooner in program history to earn the honor in the steeplechase.
 
Senior and school record holder Paige Low capped her collegiate career with an NCAA honorable mention award, finishing 21st in the discus throw with a mark of 51.53m (169’0.00″).

Last year, Mediacorp actor Zhai Siming went topless as he bashfully hawked durians to us during an on-set visit for drama Uniquely Yours last year.

Well, so much for being shy.

The 28-year-old has now stripped down to his Speedos for his role as a water polo team captain in upcoming Mediacorp drama, Cell Phone Swap.

And we know his fans are lapping it up.

Now, we are not just talking about Siming casually posing in his trunks.

In a cheeky IG boomerang with Star Search 2024 finalists Jona Chung and Tan Zisheng, plus actor Calvert Tay, the crisp-looking quartet gave an eyeful, flashing their Speedo tan lines.

Nosebleed, anyone?

But it doesn’t stop there. The Emerald Hill actor has also been flooding his IG Internet with a wave of topless thirst traps lately.

Not that anyone’s complaining.

Scroll down for all of Siming’s thirst traps.

Now we are wondering if Siming been picking up a thing or two from his buddy, resident Medicorp hunk Tyler Ten, on how to catch our attention.

In an interview with Shin Min Daily, Siming revealed that he prepped for his many topless scenes by sticking to a strict clean diet and hitting the gym every day.

For his role as a durian seller, he was already doing that and visiting the gym five times a week.  

Of course, netizens took notice and flooded the comments with a furry of hearts and kisses.

One even hilariously wrote, “Hello mister! Need a #nsfw disclaimer next time!”

Another commented, “I just had a nosebleed. Can I claim my doctor’s visit from you?”

Even Yes 933 DJ Kunhua chimed in, “Just wear this for the Star Awards”.

Not a bad idea as viewers will be able to vote for the evening’s best dressed during the Walk of Fame at the upcoming Star Awards 2025.

Less is more, right?

EUGENE, Ore., June 14, 2025 — The University of South Florida men’s track and field team made history at the 2025 NCAA Outdoor Championships, held June 11–14 at Hayward Field, by capturing the program’s first-ever national title in the men’s 4×400-meter relay and securing a top-15 finish in the team standings.

The Bulls’ 4x400m relay squad — Devontie Archer, Alexavier Monfries, Corey Ottey and Gabriel Moronta — closed out the final day of competition in emphatic fashion, claiming the national title with a program-record time of 3:00.42. The blistering performance earned the quartet First-Team All-American honors and delivered a historic moment for USF track and field.

Monfries and Moronta powered the win with the two fastest splits of the championship final, clocking 44.11 and 44.23, respectively.

“This is a monumental moment for our program and these young men earned every bit of it,” said USF Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Erik Jenkins. “They ran with heart, poise and purpose on the biggest stage in collegiate track and field. To bring home our first national title and place among the nation’s top teams is a testament to the commitment and character of our entire group.”

USF’s success extended well beyond the relay. The Bulls’ 4x100m relay team — featuring Shomari Pettigrew, Jaleel Croal, Monfries and Abdul-Rasheed Saminu — also earned First-Team All-American honors after placing fourth with a time of 38.73.

In field events, Vincent Ugwoke earned First-Team All-American honors with a seventh-place finish in the discus throw, recording a mark of 60.58 meters (198-9).

Individually, Saminu claimed First-Team All-American honors in the 200m dash with a time of 20.55, and Second-Team All-American honors in the 100m dash after posting a 10.11. The Ghana native now owns three All-American honors at the 2025 championships alone.

Croal earned Second-Team All-American status in the 200m (20.58) and honorable mention in the 100m (10.38) to close out a strong showing on the national stage.

Overall, South Florida totaled 18 points to finish 14th in the final team standings — one of just two non-Power Four programs (alongside New Mexico) to finish in the top 15.

Top-15 Final Team Standings & Points:

Texas A&M – 41, USC – 41, Arkansas – 40, Auburn – 35, New Mexico – 31, Oklahoma – 30.5, Minnesota – 25, Florida – 22, Kentucky – 22, Ole Miss – 22, BYU – 19, Oklahoma State – 19, Oregon – 19, South Florida – 18, Tennessee – 18.

ABOUT USF TRACK AND FIELD

The USF men’s track and field team captured back-to-back American Athletic Conference Indoor Championships in 2024 and 2025 and also claimed the 2024 AAC Outdoor Championship. This past season, 10 Bulls athletes earned All-America honors, including Shevioe Reid, Shaniya Benjamin, Gabriel Moronta, Nathan Metelus, Terren Peterson, Amenda Saint Louis, Abdul-Rasheed Saminu, Goodness Iredia, Zahria Allers-Liburd, and Tre’Sean Bouis. Additionally, Romaine Beckford represented USF by winning the 2023 NCAA indoor and outdoor national titles in the men’s high jump.

The Bulls’ achievements extended to individual accolades, with Saminu Abdul-Rasheed earning the 2025 Indoor Most Valuable Performer award and Nikodem Pochopien being named Freshman of the Year. The USF coaching staff also received high honors, earning the AAC Indoor Staff of the Year award in both 2024 and 2025.

Since 2013, USF has produced two NCAA runner-up finishes: O’Neal in the triple jump (2016) and Courtney Anderson in the high jump (2013). Head coach Erik Jenkins, who took over in July 2019, has played a key role in the program’s success, guiding USF to seven program records and 40 top-10 all-time program marks during the 2021 outdoor season. USF has also hosted major track and field events at its USF Track & Field Stadium, including the 2018 NCAA East Preliminary and the AAC Outdoor Championships in 2021 and 2023.
