Women's 10,000 Meters
Carmela Cardama Baez wasn't going to disappoint in front of the home crowd.
The senior from Oregon captured the NCAA crown in 32:16.13, which is the fourth-fastest time in final site meet history.
It came down to Cardama Baez and Mercy Chelangat of Alabama as the two started to run away from the competition in the later half of the race. Cardama Baez tucked in behind Chelangat when the gap between them and the rest of the field grew larger. Baez took the lead with two laps to go and began to pull away from Celangat on the bell lap.
Cardama Baez became the second Duck in program history to win the event at the NCAA Championships. Kathy Hayes was the first to do so in 1984.
Chelangat finished second in 32:22.11, while Maria Mettler of Air Force finished in third with a time of 32:34.05.
