2025 NCAA DI Indoor Track and Field Championships

Virginia Beach, VA

Isabella Whittaker had the performance of the meet, breaking the NCAA women's record for the 400 meter run. She finished in 49.24, running a scintillating 25.43 for the second 200. The women's 400 meter final was split into two heats. Isabella ran the third fastest time for the opening 200 meters and ran the fastest closing 200.

Aaliyah Butler, running for Georgia, and in the second heat, finished with the second fastest time on the day. Her opening 200 (23.18) was the fastest first 200 of all competitors. Since she was in the second heat, she would have been aware of the stunning time Isabella Whittaker had posted in the first heat. Aaliyah had recently beaten Isabella in the SEC championships a couple of weeks ago.
