Laulauga Tausaga is a world champion

In a season full of great performances, Laulauga Tausaga’s gold medal at the junior Pan American Games will be up there.

In her first year competing with the team, Tausaga won a Big Ten Championship, finished 7th at the NCAA Championships, a USATF U20 national title and then a junior world gold medal. She’s already the best female thrower this program has ever had. She’s going to be a sophomore next year.

Let that sink in.
