Katelyn Tuohy wins 3k at ACCs and gets a standing ovation from the crowd

Rightfully so! They just saw a future Olympian run in person. Never seen a track and field crowd give a standing ovation at a conference meet.

Tuohy unites all track fans, no matter what school they were cheering on, they all stood for her.

8:51 looked like a walk in the park

Very well true. Spectators were booing at their rival schools but stood up and applauded Tuohy.

Yeah, that was pretty crazy to see. Literally JOGGED more than 1/2 of it and then gradually cranked up a quite comfortable pace for her that obliterated everyone and was still casual about it. An 8:51 running that comfortably is jaw-dropping for NCAA.

katelyn was asked about herself and answered about her team lol always

LR roaches gave you 2 thumbs down!🤣

Keeps the pressure off her, she’s street smart!

😭😂 bruh they were shouting "move" at lapped runners during the outdoors champs.. they r savage

Yeah, that’s right, though in her case it was genuine. She’s aware that her status can develop jealousy but she genuinely wants to divert attention to her teammates and is uneasy about undue attention being focused on her.

Tuohy looked really special here. Splits of 3:03-3:03-2:46. Now 2:46 is 8:18 pace, nearly WR pace. The way she looked running that 2:46 and how easily she crossed the line, I'm almost surprised she 'only' ran 8:35 recently. Her turnover looks better than I ever remember, she's just gliding across the ground. Very excited to see how the rest of this season and the spring turns out.

EXACTLY!

She seems uncomfortable with the attention. It probably doesn't help that some posters ☝️☝️☝️ go on twitter and youtube and diss her dmr teammates.

Coaches to their runners before the race: "Ok ladies, go out there and fight hard for that 2nd place."

Another suspicious performance and still not tested for drugs.

Still couldn't hold a candle to Jordan Hasay.

Stay tuned captain obvious!😘

She was definitely standing up for her teammates based on the emphasis placed on her relay time, which she does not need to do. Had NCSt not lost their top 400m runner to a last minute injury they may have had a good shot at the ACC title. But even then, as currently constituted they are a distance team, not a middle distance team, a team good enough to win the XC National title twice and to have multiple AAs in the distance events.
