Plano junior Tiriah Kelley currently holds the fastest women’s 200-meter time in the Big 12 with the third-fastest mark recorded by a female athlete in 2025.

Kelley clocked the record winning time of 22.73 during the 2025 Corky Classic at Texas Tech’s Sports Performance Center in Lubbock. Her time broke the Baylor program record in the women’s 200-meter, grabbing her second consecutive first-place finish in the 200-meter and earning her Big 12 Female Athlete of the Week honors to round out January.

“Knowing there’s nothing I can do at the meet that’ll change what I’ve already done, I came here,” Kelley said.
