PROVO, Utah — Sami Oblad ran 50.49 in the 400-meters to break her own school record Saturday at the Clarence F. Robison Outdoor Track & Field.
The senior from Stansbury Park, Utah broke her own school record of 51.79, set on April 19 at the 2025 Mt. SAC Relays, by more than a second.
Oblad's 50.49 ranks No. 5 in the NCAA this season and leads the Big 12, further solidifying her place among the NCAA’s premier quarter-milers.
"That race was absolutely stunning by Sami," said BYU sprints and hurdles coach Kyle Grossarth. "I am so proud of her and what she has accomplished. Sami and Emily [Ellis-Dalley] have worked hard together all year and it was great for them to be able to showcase that here in front of a home crowd."
Ellis-Dalley placed third with a personal-best time of 53.77, cracking the program’s all-time top 10 board. The senior from Highland, Utah now ranks No. 7 in school history.
Freshman Annie Nuttall also ran a personal best of 56.37 to place seventh, while sophomore Madelynne Taggart finished ninth in 57.25.
