Van Klinken, who finished her career having never lost a discus competition, said it was easy to think that after she first set the NCAA meet record as a sophomore that more records would have come easier, but two years of added perspective has given her a better appreciation of how difficult that really is.

"It was kind of crazy because I set it two years ago, my first year in college athletics," she said. "So, it would have been possible obviously throughout last year, but then it was raining a lot. So, then I didn't really have the chance. My main goal today was to deliver some good technique and hopefully throw the distance, and I think three throws over 65 is a very good accomplishment."

Senior Ashley Anumba of Virginia finished second with a fourth-round throw of 61.13m/200-6. 

Freshman Alida van Daalen of Florida placed third with her best throw of 59.96m/196-9 coming in the third round.
