BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – A big weekend looms ahead for Ole Miss men's and women's track & field, with the Rebels heading to the Hoosier State for the Indiana Relays on Jan. 28-29. Meanwhile, All-American senior Mario Garcia Romo heads to the Big Apple to run in the prestigious Wanamaker Mile at the historic 114th Millrose Games, held at The Armory in New York City on Saturday afternoon.
MEET NOTES
• Live results will be available for the Indiana Relays, while the Wanamaker Mile will be broadcast live on NBC on Saturday (Jan. 29) at 3:20 p.m. CT.
• In total, Ole Miss will send 61 student-athletes to IU: 26 on the women's squad and 35 on the men's.
• Other schools aside from Ole Miss and Indiana in competition include: Butler, Eastern Kentucky, Miami (Ohio), Michigan, Michigan State, North Carolina, Ohio, Purdue, Southeast Missouri, Southern Illinois, Tennessee, UC Riverside and Wisconsin.
• Ole Miss enters the weekend with the nation's No. 8 women's squad in the first USTFCCCA National Rating Index released for the 2022 indoor season on Tuesday.
• The No. 8 slot stands tied for the second-best ever for the Rebel women indoors, tying with a Week Seven appearance at No. 8 in 2017 and a preseason No. 8 ranking in 2018, and behind only a No. 7 ranking in Week One of the 2008 indoor season.
• This is the seventh top-10 appearance for the Rebel women indoors, as well as the 37th total appearance in the indoor rankings in general since it began in 2008. Additionally, this is the Rebel women's 14th ranking in the last 15 releases after being ranked for the entirety of the 2020 and 2021 indoor regular seasons. Under seventh-year head coach Connie Price-Smith, Ole Miss has notched 29 of those 37 total appearances.
• The Ole Miss men own 12 NCAA top-50 marks and stand at No. 36 in the Week One USTFCCCA National Rating Index.
• Ole Miss is coming off an extraordinary meet at the Vanderbilt Invitational, where the Rebels set two current NCAA leads, 10 additional NCAA top-25 marks and a world lead in the women's weight throw from Shey Taiwo.
• Following the excellent performances at Vanderbilt, Ole Miss was awarded with a trio of weekly honors from the SEC office for John Rivera Jr. (SEC Men's Runner of the Week), Shey Taiwo (SEC Women's Field Athlete of the Week) and Sintayehu Vissa (SEC Co-Women's Runner of the Week).
• Ole Miss will have next weekend off before picking back up Feb. 11-12 at both Vanderbilt's Music City Challenge and Arkansas' Tyson Invitational before the postseason, which will consist of the 2022 SEC Indoor Championships at Texas A&M on Feb. 25-26 and the NCAA Indoor Championships in Birmingham on March 11-12.
• Ole Miss is coming off a 2021 indoor season for the ages, where the Rebel men finished 10th overall at a program-record 20 NCAA points, and the women scored their third-most points ever with 12, which was good for 19th place overall. The men's 10th-place finish stood as the best by the Ole Miss men since 2001 (10th), and tied for the second-best behind only a tie for ninth in 1991.
• With 13 First or Second-Team All-Americans back from the 2021 indoor season, Ole Miss returns nearly all of that historic national roster, including all four members of the NCAA runner-up men's distance medley relay of Everett Smulders, Elijah Dryer, John Rivera Jr. and Mario Garcia Romo that ran the third-fastest time in NCAA history and fourth-fastest time in world history, only finishing behind the world record holders of Oregon.
• Other men's All-Americans returning include Second-Teamers Allen Gordon (high jump, 9th; long jump, 9th) and Baylor Franklin (800-meter, 12th). The lone All-American loss for the Rebel men is Waleed Suliman, who finished third in the mile and 15th in the 3K in 2021.
• The Ole Miss women, meanwhile, return five of six First-Team All-Americans, with the only departure being Maddie King from the eighth-place women's DMR squad that included returnees Toni Glatz, Sintayehu Vissa and Loral Winn.
• Ole Miss also returns one of the most fearsome women's throws units in the history of the NCAA for 2022. All-American duo Jasmine Mitchell and Shey Taiwo return after the pair went back-to-back at the national meet in the weight throw last season, with Taiwo finishing third and Mitchell fourth. Taiwo and Mitchell last season were the first teammates in the history of the NCAA to eclipse the 23-meter mark in the same season.
• A total of 26 new Rebels join the roster for 2022: pole vaulter Frankie Amore, sprinter Ariyonna Augustine, jumper Iangelo Atkinstall-Daley, distance runenr Shane Bracken, distance runner Aiden Britt, jumper Spencer Brown, pole vaulter/multi athlete Jose Corbo, distance runner Tiarnan Crorken, distance runner Dereck Elkins, thrower Mason Hickel, distance runner Hannah Ielfield, thrower Montel Johnson, pole vaulter Ford Maberry, sprinter Bria Mack, distance runner Chris Maxon, sprinter Keirston Paige, distance runner Miles Phillips, distance runner Cole Piotrowski, distance runner Chase Rose, distance runner Gabe Scales, jumper LaRiah Shannon, jumper Annie Strong, distance runner Lydia van Dijk, sprinter Isaiah Weasby, distance runner James Young and hurdler Ahmad Young Jr.
• Ole Miss enters year seven under head coach Connie Price-Smith, who has led the Rebels to new heights in her time in Oxford. On the track, the Rebels have collected seven NCAA top-25 team finishes, seven NCAA individual champions, five NCAA runners-up, 105 First or Second-Team All-Americans, 161 NCAA points, 50 SEC Champions and program-record SEC finishes in men's indoor (third, 2x), women's indoor (fifth, 2017) and women's outdoor (fifth, 2018). Nationally under her guidance, the track Rebels have recorded program records in women's indoor (T-12th, 2017) and the second-best ever in men's indoor (10th, 2021). In 21 years as a head coach at both Ole Miss and Southern Illinois dating back to 2002, Price-Smith has collected 12 NCAA event titles and mentored 179 All-Americans on the track.
• In its history indoors, Ole Miss has finished in the NCAA top-25 of the team standings 17 total times (12 times on the men's side, five times on the women's side).
• Ole Miss owns 121 First or Second-Team All-Americans indoors (80 men, 41 women), as well as eight NCAA titles (11 total NCAA Champions; nine men, two women). Of those 121, a total of 58 All-Americans (37 men, 21 women) have come under Price-Smith, as well as two NCAA titles (Raven Saunders, shot put, 2017; men's DMR, 2017).
• Ole Miss has won 47 SEC Indoor titles (37 men, 10 women) with 68 SEC Champions (58 men, 10 women).
• Ole Miss won five SEC titles in 2021 in the women's weight throw (Jasmine Mitchell), men's mile (Waleed Suliman), men's 3K (Mario Garcia Romo), men's 5K (Cole Bullock) and men's distance medley relay (Suliman, Marcus Dropik, Everett Smulders, Garcia Romo).
MEN'S NOTES
• All-American senior Mario Garcia Romo will represent Ole Miss and his home country of Spain on a massive stage this weekend in the historic Wanamaker Mile at the 114th Millrose Games at The Armory in New York City on Jan. 29. Garcia Romo is the lone collegian in a field filled with high-profile professional runners, and he joins former Rebels Robert Domanic (2018 Wanamaker Mile participant) and Sean Tobin (2018 Millrose invitational mile participant) as recent Rebels to have run at the prestigious Millrose Games. Domanic finished 10th in the 2018 Wanamaker Mile.
• Garcia Romo will be among the best milers on the planet, such as Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist Josh Kerr of Great Britain, fellow Olympic finalist Ollie Hoare of Australia, and even several time All-American and Ole Miss legend, Craig Engels. Others in the field include: five-time Olympian and two-time medalist Nick Willis of New Zealand; 2016 Olympic 800-meter bronze medalist Clayton Murphy of the United States; 18-year-old American phenom Hobbs Kessler; Olympic semifinalists Andrew Coscoran of Ireland and Charles Philibert-Thiboutot of Canada; and additional Americans Colby Alexander and Henry Wynne.
• Just last week at Vanderbilt, Garcia Romo broke Doug Smith's 1985 Ole Miss record in the 1000-meter race (2:24.68), becoming the 10th-best performer in NCAA history in the event at a new Rebel record of 2:20.12. Runner-up Cruz Culpepper also would have broken the Ole Miss record at his time of 2:20.66.
• A three-time First-Team All-American, Garcia Romo enters his redshirt junior indoor season as the school record holder in the 3K (7:48.40) and No. 2 in the mile (3:56.46). Garcia Romo was one of four Rebels to break the four-minute barrier in the mile all at once in one of the best moments of the season in 2021, joining Suliman (3:55.60), Smulders (3:58.73) and Baylor Franklin (3:59.12) all doing so at Vanderbilt's Music City Challenge on Feb. 12.
• Garcia Romo stands as one of just four Rebels all-time to own sub-4 mile times and sub-8 3K times alongside Suliman, Sean Tobin and Derek Gutierrez.
• Garcia Romo is one of two returning SEC Indoor individual champions from 2021 after winning the 3K last season in addition to running anchor on the SEC title DMR team. The other is Cole Bullock, who opened his 2022 campaign in the mile last weekend after winning the SEC 5K title in 2021.
• Garcia Romo is coming off a spectacular track season in 2021 that saw him earn three First-Team All-American honors, two SEC titles, 12 total NCAA points and 17.5 SEC points. He also ran anchor on the 2021 Ole Miss men's distance medley relay team that finished NCAA runner-up at the fourth-fastest time in world history at 9:20.75, which only finished behind the world record holders of Oregon. Garcia Romo split an incredible 3:53.28 on the 1600-meter anchor leg, his second sub-3:55 leg after running 3:54.69 to help the Rebel men win their seventh SEC title in the DMR in the last eight years at a meet record time of 9:29.35.
• Garcia Romo also finished third at the Spanish national meet in the hopes of qualifying for the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo, and two days later on the final day of global qualifying he ran an Ole Miss 1500-meter record 3:35.79 at a last-chance meet in Spain. Garcia Romo closed his summer out with a silver medal at the European U23 Championships in Tallinn.
• The Ole Miss men's distance runners were superb at Vanderbilt last week, running eight times currently within the NCAA top-50 -- including a national leading time in the 800-meter from All-American senior and reigning SEC Men's Runner of the Week, John Rivera Jr.
• Rivera Jr. tied the U.S., NCAA and SEC lead with an overall career-best 1:47.48, the third-best ever run by a Rebel indoors and the fastest since Ryan Manahan ran 1:47.37 at the 2016 Penn State National. Rivera beat out two professional runners from the Atlanta Track Club for the win, and his time also currently stands tied for sixth in the world this season.
• In his season opener at UAB, Rivera broks his own school record in the 600-meter at a meet-record 1:17.45, toppling his old record of 1:17.90 at the same meet in 2020.
• Rivera was narrowly thwarted of an SEC individual title in the 800-meter last season as well, finishing as the silver medalist. Ole Miss won the mile, 3K, 5K and DMR, the closest to an SEC distance sweep since Arkansas did so in 1999. Rivera was an individual national qualifier and All-American for the cancelled 2020 NCAA Indoor Championships in the 800-meter.
• Also running an NCAA top-15 time in the 800-meter was fellow All-American senior Everett Smulders, whose 1:49.22 puts him at No. 15 in the NCAA and No. 3 in the SEC this season. Marcus Dropik's 1:51.41 from the same race currently ranks No. 41 nationally and No. 9 in the SEC.
• The Ole Miss milers came out in full force at Vanderbilt yet again, this time with three Rebels crossing the line below the prestigious four-minute barrier. Senior James Young (3:57.81; NCAA No. 14), junior Shane Bracken (3:58.36; NCAA No. 15) and junior Dereck Elkins (3:59.46; NCAA No. 20) all broke the barrier for the Rebels, and were followed closely by senior Michael Coccia (4:01.10; NCAA No. 29) and sophomore Cole Bullock (4:03.46; NCAA No. 46). Those five times rank one-through-five in the SEC, with Young third all-time at Ole Miss, followed by Bracken (fifth), Elkins (ninth), and Coccia (13th).
• Bracken and Tiarnan Crorken were added to the Ole Miss roster just recently after joining as mid-year enrollees. Bracken hails from Ireland and transfers in from Division II Saint Leo University (where Rebel All-American Sintayehu Vissa ran), and where he was a two-time All-American in the 1500-meter outdoors. Crorken, meanwhile, is from Burnley, England, where he was the U23 English 1500-meter champion in 2021 and ran at the U23 European Championships in Tallinn. He owns a mile PR of 3:58.89.
• In its history, Ole Miss holds nine sub-four milers: Waleed Suliman (3:55.60, 2021), Mario Garcia Romo (3:56.46, 2021), Young, Sean Tobin (3:58.28, 2018), Bracken, Derek Gutierrez (3:58.55, 2019), Everett Smulders (3:58.73, 2021), Baylor Franklin (3:59.12, 2021) and Elkins.
• This weekend at IU marks the first distance medley relay of the season for the Rebels, who have remained the dominant force in the SEC and one of the best nationally in the DMR over the past decade. Last season, the Rebel men's DMR of Everett Smulders, Elijah Dryer, John Rivera Jr. and Mario Garcia Romo finished NCAA Runner-Up at 9:20.75 -- the third-best time in NCAA history and fourth-best in the history of the world that obliterated the Ole Miss school record set just two weeks earlier at the SEC Indoor Championships.
• At SECs, Waleed Suliman, Marcus Dropik, Smulders and Garcia Romo set an SEC meet record at 9:29.35 to win their seventh DMR title in the last eight seasons.
• Running the DMR at Indiana this week are James Young, Elijah Dryer, John Rivera Jr. and Everett Smulders.
• Senior transfer Montel Johnson opened his Rebel career with an impressive mark in the weight throw at UAB, already jumping up to No. 5 all-time at Ole Miss with a five-foot PR of 20.26m/66-05.75. Johnson, who won the MAAC weight throw title while at Monmouth in 2021, currently ranks 35th nationally and No. 5 in the SEC at that season-opening toss.
• Senior thrower Joseph Benedetto rests within one foot of All-American Dempsey McGuigan's 2018 weight throw record at 20.87m/68-05.75 to McGuigan's 21.11m/69-03.25.
• A pair of Ole Miss hurdlers also reside within the current NCAA top-50 and the SEC top-10 after an excellent showing at the Vanderbilt Invitational. Transfers Ahmad Young Jr. and Keirston Paige went one-two in the 60-meter hurdles final, with Young Jr. running the sixth-best time in school history at 7.93 (NCAA No. 36) and Paige the seventh-best at 7.96 (NCAA No. 48). Those times rank eighth and 10th in the SEC, respectively.
• Freshman Iangelo Atkinstall-Daley had a solid open to his Rebel career as well in the triple jump. Atkinstall-Daley finished third at the Blazer Invite at 15.14m/49-08.25 that puts him at No. 48 in the NCAA and No. 6 in the SEC. Among freshmen, Atkinstall-Daley currently ranks 10th nationally and third in the SEC.
• All-American jumper Allen Gordon returns for an extra year of eligibility after a splendid 2021 campaign and will open at UAB on Friday. Gordon was a finalist in the long jump at the U.S. Olympic Trials, where he finished in ninth place. Gordon was one of the most consistent jumpers in the NCAA across all three of his events in 2021, and alongside LSU national champion JuVaughn Harrison was one of just two long jump/high jump doublers at both national meets. Gordon finished the NCAA outdoor season as the only jumper nationally at 7' 2.25" in the high jump, 25' 11.50" in the long jump and 51' 6.5" in the triple jump, and he is also the only jumper in Ole Miss history to hit those distances. Gordon tied for the SEC indoor bronze in the high jump in 2021.
WOMEN'S NOTES
• All-American senior Shey Taiwo took the throwing world by storm, setting the weight throw world lead for 2022 and becoming the No. 7 performer in NCAA history after a massive three-and-a-half foot PR to win at the Vanderbilt Invitational on Jan. 21. That throw came on her first attempt for the second straight week, and it ranks as the 16th-best ever by a collegian.
• The weight throw competition featured the top-three weight throw marks worldwide this season from Taiwo, former Rebel NCAA Champion and two-time U.S. champ Janeah Stewart (No. 2, 23.77m/78-00.00) and All-American teammate, junior Jasmine Mitchell (No. 3, 23.62m/77-06.00).
• Taiwo's previous best was 23.04m/75-07.25 as the SEC runner-up to Mitchell in 2021, and just the week prior she had set the NCAA lead on her first throw of the season at 22.62m/74-02.50.
• All four of her legal throws would have been a PR, and all would have put her within the NCAA top-11 all-time entering competition. Among total throws in NCAA history, her field series ranks No. 16 (24.11m), No. 26 (23.70m), No. 32 (23.60m) and No. 38 (23.49m).
• Taiwo's throw falls just one centimeter shy of Janeah Stewart's 2018 school record of 24.12m/79-01.75, and it also makes Taiwo the third-best in conference history behind Florida's Candace Scott (No. 5 NCAA, 24.17m/79-03.75, 2005) and Stewart's 2018 throw (No. 6 NCAA).
• Taiwo's throw is also the second-best in NCAA history as of Jan. 21 or earlier in the indoor season, ranking only behind Brittany Riley's 24.23m/79-06.00 on Dec. 7, 2007. Riley set what was then the world record and still the current NCAA record of 25.56m/83-10.25 on March 10, 2007 while under the tutelage of Ole Miss head coach Connie Price-Smith and throws coach John Smith at Southern Illinois
• Taiwo is a three-time NCAA qualifier in the weight throw indoors, the 2020 SEC Champion and 2021 SEC runner-up, and is the reigning NCAA hammer runner-up outdoors.
• Mitchell, the reigning SEC Champion over Taiwo, ranks third in the world and second in the NCAA behind Taiwo at that throw of 23.62m/77-06.00. Mitchell is also now the No. 11 performer in NCAA history, and her three best from that field series at Vanderbilt ranks No. 31 (23.62m), No. 52 (23.27m) and No. 103 (22.78m) all-time in the NCAA.
• Mitchell and Taiwo, who last year became the first teammates in NCAA history to throw beyond 23 meters in the same season (let alone the same meet) after doing so at the 2021 SEC Championships, are now the first duo to eclipse 77 feet in the same season, and both again did so within the same meet. The pair finished back-to-back at the 2021 NCAA Championships, with Taiwo taking third and Mitchell fourth in the nation.
• Also ranking in the weight throw is junior Jalani Davis, whose PR of 21.29m/69-10.25 ranks 14th in the NCAA and fourth in the SEC this season, as well as No. 6 all-time at Ole Miss.
• Ole Miss owns one of the most fearsome women's weight throw sqauds in NCAA history, with four owning career-best throws of 69 feet or further, three 72 feet or further, and the top-two -- Taiwo and Mitchell -- at 77 feet or further. Ole Miss has won four of the last five SEC women's weight throw titles, with Janeah Stewart repeating in 2017 and 2018 before Taiwo won in 2020 and Mitchell in 2021.
• In 2020, Ole Miss was also the first school in NCAA history with three women at or beyond the 22-meter plateau in the weight throw in a single season: Shey Taiwo, Jasmine Mitchell, Deborah Bulai. All three qualified and earned All-American honors at the cancelled 2020 NCAA Indoor Championships. Prior to 2020, only three schools ever had two 22-meter throwers (Florida, 2004; Louisville, 2010; Southern Illinois, 2011), including a Southern Illinois squad coached by head coach Connie Price-Smith and throws coach John Smith via marks from Olympian Gwen Berry and NCAA Champion Jeneva McCall (both ended up serving as Ole Miss volunteer assistant coaches). Notre Dame also had two throwers beyond 22 meters, making 2020 the first in NCAA history to have multiple schools have multiple athletes throw beyond that mark.
• Davis is also ranked highly in the shot put at her indoor career-best of 16.70m/54-09.50 that ranks No. 13 in the NCAA, No. 4 in the SEC and No. 3 all-time at Ole Miss indoors. Davis is coming off a superb 2021 outdoor season that saw her take SEC Outdoor runner-up honors at a monster toss of 17.52m/57-05.75 and stand as the lone thrower nationwide -- men's or women's -- to triple at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
• All-American junior Sintayehu Vissa dismantled her own school record in the mile at Vanderbilt last weekend. Vissa won at an eight-second PR of 4:32.70 in just her second mile race since transferring from Division II Saint Leo, shattering her previous Ole Miss record of 4:40.99 also set at Vanderbilt last season in her first mile competition as a Rebel.
• Vissa's time currently ranks second in the NCAA and is worth 20.62 points in the rating index, and furthermore, Vissa's time stands as the second-best ever run by an Italian indoors, trailing only Gabriella Dorio's 4:28.90 run on March 10, 1982.
• Vissa took the track by storm in 2021 shortly after joining the Ole Miss roster, running the fastest 800-meter time since 2017 at 2:06.45 in her debut at Arkansas on Jan. 29 before becoming the fourth and fastest Rebel to set the previous mile record at 4:40.99 at the Music City Challenge on Feb. 12. Vissa was also a First-Team All-American indoors on the Rebel women's DMR that finished eighth, she was an NCAA East Region qualifier outdoors in the 800-meter where she ran 2:04.53, and this past fall she became the first Rebel woman to ever earn All-American status in the cross country season after a 33rd-place finish at the national meet.
• Also running an impressive mile time at Vanderbilt last week was senior Anna Elkin, who clocked a four-second PR of 4:42.08 that ranks as the second-best ever by a Rebel behind Vissa, as well as No. 21 in the NCAA and No. 5 in the SEC this season.
• Both Vissa and Elkin will run alongside Jayda Eckford and Loral Winn in the Rebels' first distance medley relay race of the season this weekend at Indiana. Last year, the quartet of Winn, Vissa, Toni Glatz and Maddie King earned the first All-America finish in women's program history in eighth place, and they also set the school record at 11:04.27 at the SEC Championships.
• Last week, Winn broke Rachel Ellison's 2004 school record in the 1000-meter run (2:54.20) by nearly eight seconds, setting a new standard at 2:46.59. Lydia van Dijk also would have broken that record at her runner-up time of 2:48.48.
• Junior and NCAA Outdoor qualifier Lyndsey Reed is off to a spectacular start to her 2022 campaign, currently ranking 13th nationally and No. 4 in the NCAA at her indoor career-best clearance of 4.25m/13-11.25 -- the second-best ever indoors in Ole Miss history. Reed's overall career-best comes from the outdoor season, a 4.28m/14-00.50 performance at the 2021 LSU Invite last season.
• Also ranking within the NCAA top-50 is junior Skylar Boogerd, whose 3K career-best of 9:29.22 from Vanderbilt last week ranks No. 27 nationally and second in the SEC. That time rests at No. 6 in the Ole Miss record books and registered as a 16-second PR.
