LUBBOCK, Texas – Teeing off a day early to avoid potential weather, the UC Davis women’s golf team took to The Rawis Course at Texas Tech to open play in the NCAA Lubbock Regional on Sunday afternoon. 

The Aggies finished the first round of three in seventh place, carding an aggregate score of 19-over 307 to open the postseason. With the top five teams advancing to the NCAA Championships final site at Omni Las Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, Calif., UC Davis has its site set on climbing up the leaderboard to reach the Southern California course.  

The front nine saw the team at a combined six-over par before the challenging back nine proved to be a tougher test. Senior Abby Leighton paced the team with a 3-over 75 that included birdies on a pair of Par 4s. The Santa Rosa, Calif., native and first team All-Big West honoree closed the day in a tie for 14th individually.  

Fellow senior Skyler May came in at 4-over 76, locking in a tie for 19th, also carding a pair of birdies. All five players on the course recorded two under-par holes during the round. The remaining trio on the course in underclassmen tandem of Yu Bai and Vani Karimanal and junior Lauren Calderon each finished the first round at 6-over 78 in the consistent effort down the lineup.  

UC Davis played the Par 5s with a combined tally of five under, which rates second in the field of 12 teams. Bai and Calderon led the charge from distance with both women playing Nos. 2, 9, 17 and 19 with a 4.50 strokes per hole average, or two under for the day.  

The Aggies bested Purdue by one with Florida Gulf Coast two back from UC Davis after the 18 holes. In the drive to the top five, UC Davis sits one stroke back from Texas A&M and two behind Tennessee and Arizona. Seventh-ranked Wake Forest is atop the leaderboard at 1-over 289 with No. 6 Texas one shot back. Individually, Wake Forest’s Caroline Chacarra and Lousiane Gauthier of FCGU share the lead after putting together rounds of 3-under 69. 

The Aggies are making their first regional appearance since 2015. In that postseason run, UC Davis made the most of the opportunity by finishing third in the South Bend Regional, going on to record an 11th place showing in the Championships in Bradenton, Fla.

COLLEGEVILLE, PA – The Johns Hopkins men’s outdoor track team earned eight medals, including three golds, and the Blue Jays used 15 top-five finishes on the final day of the 2025 Centennial Conference Championships to fuel a run to the eighth conference title in program history.  The Blue Jays finished with 218 points to unseat three-time defending conference champion Ursinus, which placed second with 171 points.
 
The 218 points the Blue Jays amassed are the third-most Johns Hopkins has earned in Centennial Conference Championship history.

In addition to the team title, the Blue Jays also nabbed the Outstanding Field Performer of the Meet in sophomore Sebastian Tangelson.

 

Johns Hopkins, which trailed by two points entering the final day of competition at the three-day championship, scored points in 12 of 13 events on Sunday to pull away from the Bears.  Five of the 15 top-five finishes for the Blue Jays on Sunday came in the final three events.

 

First-place finishes and top performances for the Blue Jays on Sunday:

 

• Triple Jump – The Blue Jays picked up the first of their three Sunday golds as Oluwademilade Adeniran eased to the title with a leap of 14.32-meters, which was more than a foot father than teammate Ethan Oluwole, who grabbed silver with a mark of 13.97-meters.  Oluwole’s jump was a season best and Sebastian Tangelson added a fifth-place finish (13.46).
  
   
• 5,000-Meter – Junior Emmanuel Leblond continued his impressive season and became Hopkins’ second all-time champion in the 5000 as he cruised across in 14:07.20.  The mark is a season-best for Leblond, a meet record and the 10^th-best time in the nation this season.  Tommy Li (4^th / 14:45.73), Nash Minor (6^th / 14:55.84) and Sean Enright (7^th / 14:57.07) teamed with Leblond to grab 20 team points in the event for the Blue Jays.
  
   
• 4×400-Meter Relay – The third and final gold medal on the day for the Blue Jays came in the final event as the team of Alex Colletti, Spencer Ye, Fisayo Omonije and Joshua Lee crossed the line in a meet-record time of 3:16.65.  This is the seventh time in Centennial Championship history that Johns Hopkins has won the event and the time is the second-best in Johns Hopkins history.
  
   
• 1,500-Meter – The Blue Jays earned a silver and placed four runners in the top seven to grab 18 points.  Aiden Tomov finished as the runner-up with a time of 3:55.61, while Brady Ott (4^th / 3:58.42), Connor Oiler (6^th / 3:58.87) and Rowan Cassidy (7^th / 3:58.64) added crucial team points with their top-seven finishes.
  
   
• 4×100-Meter Relay – The Johns Hopkins team of Alex Colletti, Spencer Ye, Josh Lee and Carter Chui posted a Blue Jay school-record time of 41.68 to earn a runner-up finish.
  
   
• 100 & 200-Meter – Alex Colletti grabbed silver in the 100 and 200-meter dashes to earn 16 individual points to go along with his efforts on the first-place 4×400-meter relay and the runner-up 4×100-meter relay.  He crossed in 10.78 seconds in the 100 and 21.85 in the 200.  Joshua Gregory (5^th / 22.57) and Spencer Ye (6^th / 22.65) added top-six finishes with Gregory’s time a season best. 

The final medal of the day for the Blue Jays came in the 800-meter run as the Blue Jays’ Evan Kelly grabbed bronze with a personal-best time of 1:52.93.  Fisayo Omonije was just behind in fourth place as he clocked in at 1:53.16.

The volleyball championship is tied with the 2023 NCAA men’s basketball regional for the highest economic impact of any NCAA championship event the city has hosted.

• These numbers were determined by the Economic Impact Calculator from Destinations International, which Louisville Tourism has used since 2017.
• Last year’s NCAA volleyball championship, which spanned four days, set multiple attendance records at the KFC Yum! Center.

Louisville is known nationally as basketball country. But those who live in the city are well aware of its love affair with volleyball.

The TCU Beach Volleyball team won its first national title in program history Sunday, beating Loyola Marymount 3-2 in five sets. The women were the first program not named USC or UCLA to win the NCAA title since beach volleyball was deemed a championship sport in 2016.

Over nine total championships (2020 was canceled due to COVID), USC won six titles and UCLA won two before TCU claimed this year’s title. Now, the celebration can begin and go all the way back to the great state of Texas.

You can see the winning point and celebration below. TCU won with its No. 1 pair of Daniela Alvarez and Tania Moreno.
