MEET NOTES
• The Rebel men currently rank No. 11 in the latest USTFCCCA Rating Index, one of 12 top-25 men's teams in competition this week alongside No. 1 Arkansas, No. 3 Tennessee, No. 5 Texas A&M, No. 7 Oklahoma, No. 9 Georgia, No. 10 Florida, No. 14 South Carolina, No. 17 Texas, No. 20 Auburn, No. 21 LSU and No. 25 Alabama.
• The Ole Miss women are sitting right outside the top-25 at No. 27 in the latest rating index. Nine total top-25 schools will compete in College Station this week: No. 2 Georgia, No. 4 Arkansas, No. 5 South Carolina, No. 14 Florida, No. 16 Tennessee, No. 17 Texas A&M, No. 18 Alabama, No. 19 Texas and No. 23 Kentucky.
• Ole Miss has won 59 SEC Indoor titles (42 men, 17 women) with 86 total SEC Champions (66 men, 20 women).
• Under 11th-year head coach Connie Price-Smith, Ole Miss has set its highest SEC Indoor finish three times each across women's (T-4th, 2023; 5th, 2017, '22) and men's (3rd, 2016, '17; T-3rd, 2025) competition. With the Rebels, Price-Smith's Rebels have scored 978.25 SEC points indoor -- or, roughly 40 percent of all Ole Miss points ever scored at the indoor conference meet (out of 2,446.45 total). That also includes an even 50 percent of all women's points ever scored by Rebels indoors.
• At Ole Miss, Price-Smith's Rebels have earned 16 NCAA individual titles (22 champions), 14 NCAA runners-up, 188 First or Second-Team All-Americans, 422 NCAA points, 81 SEC individual champions and a bevy of the best team finishes in program history at both the SEC and NCAA levels. She owns 34 top-25 national team finishes across track (19) and cross country (15), as well as eight of the 11 all-time NCAA top-10 track finishes in Ole Miss history: 2025 men's outdoor (T-8th), 2025 men's indoor (T-10th), 2024 women's outdoor (5th), 2024 women's indoor (5th), 2023 women's indoor (10th), 2022 women's indoor (T-6th), 2022 men's indoor (T-10th) and 2021 men's indoor (10th).
• Last year, the Rebel men tied for their best-ever finish indoors with a tie for third place -- helped greatly by 20 more points from three-time NCAA Champion and All-American senior, Tarik Robinson-O'Hagan.
• Robinson-O'Hagan pulled off his second consecutive sweep of the men's shot put and weight throw, after becoming the first in conference history to do so in 2024 as a sophomore. When including the outdoor season, Robinson-O'Hagan has collected four consecutive sweeps of his events at the conference meet since 2024. In his career, Robinson-O'Hagan owns nine SEC titles in 13 opportunities (four in six tries indoors) for an absurd 104 SEC points scored (which averages to 17.3 per conference meet).
• Robinson-O'Hagan has so far made both 2026 editions of the watch list for The Bowerman -- collegiate track & field's version of the Heisman Trophy -- the 10th appearance of his career. Robinson-O'Hagan is one of three throwers on the February watch list and one of four athletes from the SEC.
• He enters this week as the national collegiate leader in the shot put at his overall career-best blast of 21.18m/69-6 at Clemson's Bob Pollock Invitational last month. This season, that ranks him fourth among all Americans and eighth on the world list. All five of his legal throws traveled at least 20.71m/67-11.50, an impressive feat compared to his prior national lead entering of 20.76m/68-01.50.
• Robinson-O'Hagan currently ranks No. 2 in SEC history and No. 20 in collegiate history indoors in the shot put, and he is within striking distance of becoming the first 70-footer indoors in conference history. His new shot put PR also improved his career indoor shot/weight throw combined best to 45.53m, second in collegiate history only to North Dakota State's Payton Otterdahl from 2019 (45.92m).
• Robinson-O'Hagan and Otterdahl are the lone collegians to throw 21 meters in the shot put and 23 in the weight throw within the same meet, with Robinson-O'Hagan owning three to Otterdahl's two. The duo, as well as fellow John Smith trained athlete Dan Taylor at Ohio State, are the lone athletes in collegiate history at 21 meters in the shot and 24 in the weight.
• His season-opening shot put performance of 20.76m/68-01.50 this year ranked as the best by any collegian that early into the season (Jan. 10) in available records (since at least 2008).
• Robinson-O'Hagan's season-opening weight throw best of 23.78m/78-00.25 also still leads the SEC while ranking fourth nationally.
• The Rhode Island native enters his final season at Ole Miss with three NCAA titles (including each of the least two indoors in 2024 and 2025) and is a 12-time All-American, nine-time SEC Champion, four-time SEC Men's Field Athlete of the Year, three-time SEC points trophy winner and 10-time SEC medalist with 59 career NCAA points scored and 104 SEC points.
• Robinson-O'Hagan has only lost to fellow collegians in the weight throw five times in his career, with three of those coming in all three of his NCAA finals. In the shot put, Robinson-O'Hagan hasn't lost indoors since the 2024 Razorback Invitational and has only twice to collegians overall since then (2024 Tom Jones Memorial; 2025 NCAA Outdoor).
• Robinson-O'Hagan's weight throw best of 24.35m/79-10.75 currently sits 13th in collegiate history and second in SEC history behind Florida's Thomas Mardal in 2021 (24.46m/80-3).
• His three straight NCAA titles from indoors 2024 to indoors 2025 landed him as one of only 10 three-peaters in collegiate history, with his first two wins in 2024 making him the youngest to sweep since 1989 and the first underclassman to win indoors since world record holder Ryan Crouser did so as a sophomore at Texas in 2014.
• Robinson-O'Hagan is the leader of a powerful Ole Miss men's throws squad that is well represented on the NCAA leaderboard. Fellow seniors Mason Hickel and Bryson Smith both are on the bubble for national qualifying, with Hickel's PR 22.25m/73-0 ranking 14th nationally and Smith's PR 22.24m/72-11.75 sitting at 15th. In the SEC, the duo rank fifth and sixth behind Robinson-O'Hagan.
• In the shot put, freshman Ashton Hearn is off to an excellent start to his collegiate career, currently ranking 42nd nationally and 11th in the SEC at 18.37m/60-03.25 -- already good for fourth in Ole Miss history indoors.
• Defending NCAA Outdoor men's high jump champion Arvesta Troupe began his final year as a Rebel in excellent form, winning at Kentucky on an indoor PR of 2.23m/7-03.75. That height has Troupe second in the SEC and third nationally so far this indoor season. Troupe became the first national high jump champion in Ole Miss history last June on a career-best clearance of 2.27m/7-05.25.
• Last year, Troupe was the SEC silver medalist both indoors and outdoors after career-best performances. A win for Troupe this week would be the first by a Rebel indoors in the high jump since Olympian Ricky Robertson in 2013.
• Junior Akaoma Odeluga enters this week among the best combo women's throwers in the nation, ranking top-10 in both the shot put and weight.
• Odeluga, along with fellow junior Skylar Soli, were part of arguably the best regular season women's weight throw competition all-time at Arkansas' Tyson Invitational two weeks ago. Odeluga launched a PR 23.08m/75-08.75 and Soli a PR 22.34m/73-03.50, which ranks them fifth and seventh, nationally. In the SEC, the duo rank second and fourth, respectively. Newcomer Nyah Edwards also set a PR at Tyson at 20.81m/68-03.25 (NCAA No. 26, SEC No. 6).
• In the shot put, Odeluga's season-opening 17.92m/58-09.50 has her seventh nationally and fourth in the SEC. Odeluga has qualified nationally in the shot put in each of her last three tries across the indoor and outdoor seasons, and she ranks within the all-time collegiate top-25 both indoors (22nd, 18.37m/60-03.25) and outdoors (13th, 18.93m/62-01.25). She is one of two women in collegiate history at 62 feet in the shot put and 210 feet in the hammer, standing alongside only Arizona State national champion Maggie Ewen.
• In the men's triple jump, key portal additions and fellow juniors Sterling Scott (Missouri) and Kyle Johnson (UConn) have instantly proven themselves among the best ever at Ole Miss. Scott's latest season-best 16.14m/52-11.50 from Clemson already has him fourth in school history and knocking on the door of becoming only the fourth 53-footer at Ole Miss indoors. This season, that ranks him sixth in the SEC and 14th nationally.
• Johnson's season-debut of 15.67m/51-5, meanwhile, ranks ninth in the conference and 41st nationally while also ranking him 11th in Ole Miss history indoors.
• Sophomore Jordan Urrutia is in the midst of an explosive 2026 season. He began with a school record 33.06 in the 300-meter and a 45.45 anchor split on the 4x400-meter relay at Kentucky on Jan. 10, and over the last month he has taken down the Ole Miss 200-meter record twice.
• Urrutia first bested Kendrick Triggs' 2002 record of 20.90 at Clemson, becoming only the second Rebel to break 21 seconds indoors with an indoor PR 20.89. Then at altitude in New Mexico, Urrutia unleashed a furious 20.60 (20.67 after altitude conversion) to dismantle his own record just six days after setting it for the first time.
• That converted time currently ranks Urrutia 18th nationally and 11th in the SEC, and it also has him high on the world and U.S. lists for 2026. This season, that time puts Urrutia No. 15 in the world and No. 11 in the United States.
• Urrutia is one of two Americans (alongside Texas A&M's Auhmad Robinson) and one of only three runners worldwide (alongside the Dominican Republic's Alexander Ogando) to have run 20.60 or faster in the 200-meter and 46.70 or faster in the 400-meter. At Clemson, Urrutia blazed an overall PR 46.63, which ranks him fourth in Ole Miss history.
• At New Mexico, Urrutia also clocked two PRs in the 60-meter dash -- his best a 6.74 that ranks him 10th in school history. Three active Rebels are currently on Ole Miss' all-time list in the 60: junior Dekell Minor (6th, 6.71), Urrutia and sophomore Tarique Wright (11th, 6.71).
• In addition to Urrutia's school record 20.60, four other active Rebels currently rank on the Ole Miss 200-meter list all-time (and all coming at New Mexico): sophomore Wesley Todd (4th, 21.08), Wright (7th, 21.22), Minor (11th, 21.37) and senior Joshua Knox (11th, 21.37).
• Ole Miss' 4x400-meter relay squad has jumped onto the all-time lists as well, first with a 3:08.85 by Knox, Todd, Cade Flatt and Urrutia to open the season at Kentucky -- helped greatly by Urrutia's 45.45 anchor leg. At Clemson, the foursome of Knox, Carson Turner, Flatt and Urrutia improved to 3:08.61, and finally at Arkansas' Tyson Invitational the relay of Knox, Urrutia, Turner and Todd ran 3:07.65 -- the second-best ever at Ole Miss indoors. All three rank within the top-six on the indoor list, and all three rank as the fastest relays at Ole Miss indoors since 2004.
• At Vanderbilt on Jan. 17, Turner took down the Ole Miss record in the 600-meter. Turner led a pack of three Rebels who all ran faster or at least as fast as John Rivera Jr.'s 2022 record 1:17.45, with Turner first at 1:16.72, Flatt next at 1:17.21 and sophomore Max Armstrong third at 1:17.45. Since this was on Vanderbilt's oversized track, though, Rivera's 2022 time at UAB still stands as the standard track size record.
• Turner and Armstrong, along with Chase Rose and Evan Thornton-Sherman, ran the fifth-fastest distance medley relay in Ole Miss history last week at Notre Dame's Alex Wilson Invite, clocking in at 9:24.16. That time currently sits fourth among SEC schools and 16th nationally.
• Rose and Armstrong put in excellent 800-meter races at Vanderbilt's Music City Challenge, with Rose charting an overall PR of 1:47.53 (SEC No. 6) and Armstrong an indoor best of 1:47.77 (SEC No. 10).
• Senior Alicia Burnett sits right on the bubble for the national meet at No. 16 in the 60-meter dash at her season-best 7.23 from the Tyson Invitational two weeks ago that ranks tied for third all-time at Ole Miss. Burnett also made it onto the 200-meter list in the school record books with a 23.75 at New Mexico that ranks her 10th all-time.
• Junior college transfer Royanah Farmer also ranks on the NCAA list in the 60 after putting together strong back-to-back excellent showings, first with a 7.35 at Vanderbilt on Jan. 17 and then another improvement to 7.31 at Clemson. That time ties her for sixth in Ole Miss history, as well as 39th nationally.
• Freshman Patchnalie Compere is off to a sparkling beginning to her Ole Miss career, already ranking among the best 200-meter runners in Rebel history -- as well as among the best sprinters claimed by Haiti of all-time.
• Compere, whose Haitian lineage gives her eligibility for their records, has set Haitian indoor all-time records already in the 200-meter (23.39) and 300-meter (37.40) dashes.
• Compere's 300 time came first at Kentucky to begin the season, with that 37.40 standing as an Ole Miss freshman record and just barely missing Olympian McKenzie Long's record 37.38 from 2023.
• At Clemson, Compere catapulted herself all the way to fourth all-time at Ole Miss indoors in the 200 with her 23.39 -- another new Ole Miss freshman record.
• Senior pole vaulter Logan Kelley is coming off the best performance of his career at Clemson, where he cleared 5.46m/17-11. That height currently ranks Kelley eighth in the SEC and 25th nationally, and it moved him up to second in school history indoors -- trailing only three-time Olympian Sam Kendricks' record 5.69m/18-08.25 from 2014.

All three rank within the top-six on the indoor list, and all three rank as the fastest relays at Ole Miss indoors since 2004.
• At Vanderbilt on Jan. 17, Turner took down the Ole Miss record in the 600-meter. Turner led a pack of three Rebels who all ran faster or at least as fast as John Rivera Jr.'s 2022 record 1:17.45, with Turner first at 1:16.72, Flatt next at 1:17.21 and sophomore Max Armstrong third at 1:17.45. Since this was on Vanderbilt's oversized track, though, Rivera's 2022 time at UAB still stands as the standard track size record.
• Turner and Armstrong, along with Chase Rose and Evan Thornton-Sherman, ran the fifth-fastest distance medley relay in Ole Miss history last week at Notre Dame's Alex Wilson Invite, clocking in at 9:24.16. That time currently sits fourth among SEC schools and 16th nationally.
• Rose and Armstrong put in excellent 800-meter races at Vanderbilt's Music City Challenge, with Rose charting an overall PR of 1:47.53 (SEC No. 6) and Armstrong an indoor best of 1:47.77 (SEC No. 10).
• Senior Alicia Burnett sits right on the bubble for the national meet at No. 16 in the 60-meter dash at her season-best 7.23 from the Tyson Invitational two weeks ago that ranks tied for third all-time at Ole Miss. Burnett also made it onto the 200-meter list in the school record books with a 23.75 at New Mexico that ranks her 10th all-time.
• Junior college transfer Royanah Farmer also ranks on the NCAA list in the 60 after putting together strong back-to-back excellent showings, first with a 7.35 at Vanderbilt on Jan. 17 and then another improvement to 7.31 at Clemson. That time ties her for sixth in Ole Miss history, as well as 39th nationally.
• Freshman Patchnalie Compere is off to a sparkling beginning to her Ole Miss career, already ranking among the best 200-meter runners in Rebel history -- as well as among the best sprinters claimed by Haiti of all-time.
• Compere, whose Haitian lineage gives her eligibility for their records, has set Haitian indoor all-time records already in the 200-meter (23.39) and 300-meter (37.40) dashes.
• Compere's 300 time came first at Kentucky to begin the season, with that 37.40 standing as an Ole Miss freshman record and just barely missing Olympian McKenzie Long's record 37.38 from 2023.
• At Clemson, Compere catapulted herself all the way to fourth all-time at Ole Miss indoors in the 200 with her 23.39 -- another new Ole Miss freshman record.
• Senior pole vaulter Logan Kelley is coming off the best performance of his career at Clemson, where he cleared 5.46m/17-11. That height currently ranks Kelley eighth in the SEC and 25th nationally, and it moved him up to second in school history indoors -- trailing only three-time Olympian Sam Kendricks' record 5.69m/18-08.25 from 2014.
