Hamrick claims 400-meter crown; Track & Field puts an exclamation point on record-setting indoor campaign on final day of Big South Championship

CHARLOTTE – The Radford women's track & field program put an exclamation point on its record-setting 2025 indoor campaign with the conclusion of the Big South Championship on Saturday.

The final day of competition was highlighted by Jeylah Hamrick's championship in the 400-meter, a silver medal by the 4x400-meter relay squad and yet another podium finish by Sienna Bailey in the 3,000-meter final as the Highlanders posted 58 points as a unit to finish fourth overall.

"Day two was simply outstanding," an excited director of track & field Shelli Sayers said. "We were on a mission to get to fourth and we did it. I could not be prouder of this team and their fight."

"Jeylah's 400-meter championship is incredible. She is the second fastest to ever do it in the entire Big South. She is just so impressive. Sienna Bailey pulled off one of the hardest triples I have ever witnessed. We have room to grown and incredible momentum heading into the outdoor season."
