Kelati, who won her first US track title, is guaranteed a spot at the Olympics while Valby & Schweizer are likely to qualify via world ranking.

Elle St. Pierre edged Elise Cranny for the win as Karissa Schweizer got 3rd as the top 3 all broke the championship record leaving NCAA phenom Parker Valby 4th despite a PR.

Valby is the first woman in collegiate history to win five NCAA distance titles in the same academic year and did it in style by running 14:52.18 to break the collegiate record.
