The TCNJ women’s track and field team saw twelve of its athletes named to the 2025-26 NJAC Women’s Indoor Track and Field All-Conference team, with Lucia Garcia-Beltran earning a major award. The team secured five gold medals, seven silvers, and three bronzes at this year’s NJAC Indoor Championships.
Garcia-Beltran was recognized as a USTFCCCA National Athlete of the Week earlier in the season. She earned three first-team honors by setting meet records in both the 60-meter and 200-meter events. In addition, she led the 4×200 relay team that became the first Division III squad to finish under one minute and forty seconds.
Kelsey Thomas won gold medals in both the 400 meters and as part of the 4×200 relay. Petra Doherty and Rukky Daranijo were also members of the winning relay, each receiving first-team recognition. Allison Lavin took first-team honors in shot put after winning gold with a throw of 12.55 meters.
Sarah Scepkowski received three silver medals for her performances in the 60-meter hurdles, high jump, and pentathlon. Her score of 3,358 points in the pentathlon ranks as the second-best in program history for that event. Daranijo added a second-team honor by finishing just behind Thomas in the 400 meters.
Kelly O’Grady earned second-team status with a time of 2:16.08 in the 800 meters. The quartet of Samantha Magin, Breanna Casais, Casey Noonan, and Brenna Omert finished second in the 4×400 relay with a time of 4:02.29.
Lia Malave achieved her first All-NJAC selections by placing third in both long jump and triple jump events. Thomas also claimed bronze in the 200 meters with a personal-best time of 25.15.
