On day one of the four-day championship meet, Joe Licata also made the Second Team All-America in the shot put.
In the semifinal events, Harrison Witt and Sam Rodman advanced to the finals of the 1500m and the 800m, respectively, with Rodman setting a new program record in the 800m.
Foster secured First Team All-American status by taking seventh place with a jump of 7.80m/25-7¼”. The competition marked the junior’s third NCAA Championship appearance and first All-America distinction.
Licata made his NCAA debut in the shot put, finishing 13th with a mark of 18.93m/62-1¼” to earn him Second Team All-America honors.
Rodman, making his fifth trip to NCAAs, qualified for Friday’s 800m final running a new personal best time of 1:46.27. The mark broke his own school record in the event for the second time this season, as Rodman smashed his own 2022 record just weeks ago with a time of 1:46.85 at the Princeton Elite.
In the 1500m, Witt cruised into Friday’s final with a 3:41.98 finish for third place in semifinal two. His time was also third overall. With the performance, Witt, a 2025 indoor Second Team All-America honoree in the mile, made his third NCAA Championship appearance this academic year and fourth all-time.
