The Lesnar genes are reigning supreme.
Mya Lesnar, the daughter of WWE legend and former UFC champion Brock Lesnar, earned the NCAA Division I women's shot put crown on Friday.
The Colorado State senior added to her already-impressive resume with her first outdoor track and field title - she won the indoor title in the 2023-24 season.

Lesnar was unable to defend that championship earlier this year, despite winning the Mountain West championship. (She finished fourth at nationals.) But she came to the outdoor season with a vengeance.
Her very first throw went 19.01 meters (62 feet, 4.5 inches), and no one else came particularly close for the rest of the meet. In fact, no else reached the 62-feet mark.
"It was pretty cool. Obviously, throws like that don't happen often. To do it on my first one is pretty cool," Lesnar said after the meet. "It meant more to me to do it on the first one and start the competition strong."

Lesnar has been named to both the indoor and outdoor All-Mountain West teams in each of the last three years. She also earned the conference's weight throw title
