Tuohy will become revelent on the US Pro Scene when she turns pro and trains like they do. I think its time for her to make that step. I would not have said that 2 years ago. I truly thought she was done, but I was wrong about that.
But why is she flashing gang signs at the finish line?
The "gang sign" is called a "wolfie" and its widely used among athletes and fans of the NC State Wolfpack. Not unlike other schools that have fan hand signs (e.g., University of Texas Hook 'em Horns or Texas A&M's thumbs up Gig 'Em).

Nothing. it's just a good measure to put her up against. These are the athletes who won the most titles, I tried to find some that have had success after the NCAA to see how they did in college. Looks like I was wrong about Sally, she won 9 not 8

If she competes to the end of the year she could add another 3 individual and 1 more team title, giving her 7 individual and 3 team titles, putting her among the leaders of this group.

Tuohy has 2 seasons left for indoors so thats 2 more titles. Tuohy has 2 seasons left for XC so thats another 2 individual titles. Tuohy has 2 seasons left for outdoor including this year so thats another 2 titles.
she currently has 4 individual titles right now and if she stays in college, she can win 8 more so that will be 12 titles till 2025 indoor season
12 titles is a record for the women's side, she could add more if she runs another distance event like the mile or 1500m or 10000m
but she doesnt get paid bonus if she wins a title so i dont think she would even bother staying till 2025

Tuohy has one more year to add to these titles. The "fifth year" is crap. If they would have given Favor Hamilton or Kipyego another year they would easily have won four more each, and everyone on this list would have several more. For that matter, Kipyego won her nine titles in only three years, so I guess we can add two more years and about 7 or 8 more titles to her total. She is not going to run a fifth year, anyway, and may not even run cross country in the fall.
