She contested nine different events this past weekend, the seven in the Heptathlon and two races of the 400-meter hurdles.
On Saturday, she raced to second place in the 400-meter hurdles before coming back 20 minutes later and finishing the 800 meters, the final event of the Heptathlon. Read more: Florida’s Jasmine Moore named 2022 SEC indoor women’s field athlete of the year

Moore will head to Team USA Trials in two weeks to try and secure her spot at the World Championships. She was an Olympian last summer in the Triple Jump.
The duo helped lead Florida to the NCAA Indoor Championship, SEC Outdoor Championship and NCAA Outdoor Championship this season.
