π Ole Miss' Tarik Robinson-O'Hagan wins men's shot put
Make it three NCAA shot put titles in a row for Ole Miss standout thrower Tarik Robinson-O'Hagan, winner of the 2025 indoor shot put crown. Robinson-O'Hagan took the lead with a 20.49 meter throw on his first attempt and that would be all he needed to secure the win β albeit a 20.48 throw and 20.04 throw don't look bad on the champ's resume. With win, Robinson-O'Hagan is the first man to win three consecutive shot put titles across seasons since Arizona State's Ryan Whiting swept the event in 2009 and 2010.

πΏ Heptathlon update
Six events down, one event to go in the men's heptathlon. After combined event athletes competed in the 60 meter hurdles and pole vault on Saturday morning, just the 1000 meters remains. Here's an updated look at the standings through six events.
The heptathlon concludes with the 1000 meters at 2:30 p.m. ET.
π Women's high jump co-champs
We have two champions in the 2025 indoor women's high jump after Texas Tech's Temitope Adeshina and Georgia's Elena Kulichenko decided to share the first place title. Here's how that came to be.
Both women failed to clear any of three attempts at 1.97 meters. At 1.94 meters, both women cleared the height on their second attempt. Prior to the 1.94 meter clearance, Adeshina and Kulichenko each missed two attempts each throughout the afternoon.
Rather than a jump-off, Adeshina and Kulichenko chose to share the first place honor as co-champions. For Kulichenko, it's her second straight high jump title where she was a co-champion, following the Georgia Bulldog's 2024 outdoor title.

π Nebraska's Tyus Wilson wins men's high jump
Seven men attempted to clear 2.20 meters and only one prevailed, Nebraska's Tyus Wilson. Wilson cleared 2.20 meters on his final attempt to secure the championship title.
After that Wilson was just competing against himself to see how high he could go. He cleared 2.25 meters on his second attempt and followed with a 2.28 meter clearance on his third attempt. He would finally attempt to land a new personal best at 2.31 meters, but would miss all three attempts.
