Moll Named National Field Athlete Of The Year
March 23, 2026 | Track & Field
SEATTLE – Junior Hana Moll was chosen as the National Women's Indoor Field Athlete of the Year today by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association. Moll won her third NCAA title in the pole vault, and her second indoors, on Mar. 14 in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Â
This is the second National Field Athlete of the Year in a row for Moll, as she also won the award for the 2025 outdoor season. And it's three in a row for the Moll twins as a duo, as Amanda Moll was the 2025 indoor season National Women's Field Athlete of the Year.
Â
Moll won every competition she entered indoors, starting with a 16-foot clearance at the UW Invitational which made her just the second collegiate woman, along with Amanda, to make the 16-foot mark.
Â
She won the 2026 NCAA Indoor title with a big Meet Record, breaking the old mark she shared with Amanda by more than four inches, clearing 15-9 3/4. Her 16-foot make remains the highest in the world thus far in 2026, and her 15-9 3/4 clearance is third-best.
Last week Moll was named the West Region Women's Indoor Field Athlete of the Year, setting her up for the national honor.
Â
The Moll twins are currently in Australia and will spend part of their spring break competing in the Maurie Plant Meet against an elite field on Mar. 28.
