The senior has been named the Big 12 Track & Field Athlete of the Week after delivering a standout performance in the 5000m at the Bryan Clay Invitational. Competing in the invitational section, the Meridian, Idaho native clocked a time of 14:52.93 to finish second overall. Her time shattered the previous BYU school record of 15:12.90—set by Whittni Morgan in 2021—by nearly 20 seconds.
Halladay-Lowry’s performance not only rewrote the BYU record books, but also propelled her to No. 2 in the NCAA this season and No. 3 in NCAA history in the women’s 5000m. A five-time First Team All-American, she now owns three individual school records for the Cougars: the outdoor 5000m, indoor 5000m, and indoor 3000m.
This marks Halladay-Lowry’s second Big 12 Athlete of the Week honor. She previously earned the award for cross country on October 8, 2024, after winning the Joe Piane Notre Dame Invitational.
Halladay-Lowry's honor is also BYU Track and Field's fourth Big 12 Athlete of the Week award of the 2025 indoor and outdoor seasons (Maren Garnett Jan. 15, Riley Chamberlain & Meghan Hunter Feb. 5, Chamberlain Feb. 19).
