Raud-Gumiel Earns Honorable Mention All-American Honors At NCAA Championships
Raud-Gumiel, overcame early setbacks in the grueling seven-event competition. She fouled on each of her three long jump attempts and failed to score in the event. She rebounded in the javelin with a mark of 100 feet, 1 inch on her final attempt to finish ninth in her flight and 19th overall. In the 800 meters, she closed out the competition with a time of 2:23.07, placing 18th.
Raud-Gumiel totaled 4,577 points to finish 21st in the overall standings. Oklahoma’s Pippi Lotta Enok captured the national title with 6,285 points.
With her performance, Raud-Gumiel became the first Long Beach State women’s athlete to earn All-America honors since Bria Palmer placed 19th in the high jump in 2019. She is the first LBSU All-American in the heptathlon since Riley Cooks earned the distinction in 2016 and 2017. Only three Long Beach State athletes have achieved All-American status in the heptathlon, a list that also includes Ami Ice (1991).
