Indianapolis, Indiana -
Ashley Barrett and
Patreece Clarke cemented their status as national forces, both repeating as All-Americans at the 2025 NCAA Indoor Championships held this weekend.
Barrett blazed to her second consecutive All-American honor in the 60m dash, while Clarke powered through for her third consecutive in the 60m hurdles.
Just a sophomore, Barrett's impressive resume now boasts two first-team and two second-team All-American accolades, alongside six Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference sprint titles.
Clarke's three-peat is a testament to her remarkable resilience. After a December injury forced her to leave the Colorado Mines Open on crutches, she battled back to reclaim her RMAC title and secure her third straight All-American finish going back to the 2023 indoor championships in Virginia Beach, VA.
"These two are special," said NMHU head coach
Bob DeVries. "Talented and focused, they understand what it takes to compete at the national level."
DeVries also credited assistant coach
Damia Russell, highlighting his expertise and dedication.
"Coach Russell has worked with some of the best sprint coaches in the world. He brings that knowledge and attention to detail to our program every day."
Freshman
Rujeko Munetsi, the Cowgirls' third national qualifier, gained valuable experience despite not advancing from the 60m dash preliminaries.
"Rujeko absorbed everything and is already focused on outdoor nationals," DeVries said.
The Cowgirls now shift their focus to the outdoor season, kicking off March 21-22 at West Texas A&M.
