Wichita State junior Rebekah Topham won the women’s Most Valuable Performance award and both of the Shockers’ track and field teams logged top-three finishes at the American Athletic Conference Indoor Championships on Saturday in Birmingham, Ala.

Topham delivered the finest meet performance of her WSU career, winning three gold medals as the Shockers’ women finished third.

She teamed with Yazmine Wright, Trudy Martin and Tianna Holmes to win the distance medley relay on Friday night in 11 minutes, 32.19 seconds, the third-fastest time in program history. Topham then won two individual golds on Saturday, winning the 1-mile race in 4:49.
