AUSTIN, Texas — North Carolina's Nicole Greene placed second in the women's high jump on Saturday in her first appearance at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in the University of Texas's Mike A. Myers Stadium.
Greene's performance marks the best finish in the outdoor event by a Tar Heel since Sheena Gordon (2nd) in 2006. Before redshirting the 2018 outdoor and 2019 indoor seasons, Greene became just the second woman in UNC history to win the women's indoor high jump title at the 2018 NCAA Championships.
"All season we've been saying that the pieces are starting to come together," head coach Harlis Meaders said.
