Amanda Moll Wins The NCAA Pole Vault Indoor Championship 20252:58

Washington Track and Field star Amanda Moll captured the women’s pole vault national championship at the 2026 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in a rare and emotionally charged finish, edging out her twin sister, Hana, in a head-to-head battle that defined one of the most compelling events of the meet.

The sisters went bar-for-bar deep into the competition, clearing the same heights in near sync, until Moll broke through at 4.63m to secure gold in a finish that came down to the finest of margins. Amanda Moll's vault set a new NCAA Outdoor record.  

The final unfolded like a mirror match for much of the competition, with both Moll sisters moving in near lockstep through the early and middle heights. Each cleared 4.25m, 4.41m, and 4.51m with composed, efficient attempts, matching each other bar for bar as the field narrowed and the stakes escalated.

As the bar rose to 4.63m (15-2), the competition tightened into a decisive moment. Amanda Moll delivered the defining clearance of the competition, going over the height to secure the NCAA title. Her twin sister pushed the bar to its limit in response but came up just short at the same mark after a hard-fought series of attempts.

Amanda Moll’s winning mark of 4.63m secured her place atop the NCAA podium, but the story of the day was the twin duel that pushed both sisters into one of the most memorable finishes of the 2026 championships.
