Last Time Out 
St. Thomas opened the 2025–26 indoor season in impressive fashion at the M City Classic in early December, delivering event wins, meet records and all-time program performances. 
 
The women were paced by senior Olivia Keller, who produced a dominant pentathlon performance by breaking her own school record with 3,815 points while also setting a meet record in the 800 meters. Keller added a high jump clearance of 1.65 meters, tying for fourth in program history, and improved her No. 3 all-time mark in the hurdles during the pentathlon. On the track, sophomore Danika Apple led the sprint group with a win in the 60 meters and a meet-record performance in the 200 meterswith junior Rebecca Randleman finishing runner-up. The Tommies also found success in the hurdles and field events, highlighted by wins from sophomore Rachel Kleinhans in the 60-meter hurdles and freshman Jayi Wilson in the long jump, along with several additional top-10 marks in program history. 
 
The men matched that momentum with a strong season debut that featured multiple event titles and top-five all-time marks. Junior Jayson Koel anchored the sprint group by winning the 200 meters and placing fourth in the 60 meters with a time that ranks among the program's best. Freshmen Barak Barner and Seth Johnson powered a dominant hurdles showing, while sophomore Maki Whelan recorded the fifth-best heptathlon score in school history. In the field, event victories from Brendan Harter in the high jump, Trever Schirmer in the shot put and Will DiSessa in the triple jump capped a well-rounded performance.
