2013 Synopsis Clemson hurdler Brianna Rollins ended her final year at the collegiate ranks -- she has signed with Nike and will forego her final year of eligibility -- the exact same way she started it: with a collegiate record. The Tiger hurdler set the collegiate record in the indoor 60 hurdles in her very first final of the season and ended her campaign with the 100 hurdles collegiate record outdoors en route to an NCAA Division I title in the event. In total, Rollins’ season featured NCAA DI titles in both the 60 and 100 hurdles; collegiate records in both events, setting it twice in the span of two days in the NCAA Championships 100 hurdles; five of the ten fastest times in collegiate history in the 60 hurdles; three of the seven fastest 100 hurdles allconditions time in collegiate history; and an unbeaten streak of 17 races between the two events. She left no doubt who was the best collegiate sprint hurdler of 2013, running away from the finals field to win in a collegiate record 12.39 (+1.7m/s) by .4 of a second — becoming the first collegiate woman to run faster than 12.40 in any conditions. The time gives her the second-fastest in American history of any race run on U.S. soil, with Gail Devers’ 12.33 in 2000 the only mark better. In overall American history, Rollins is now the fourth-fastest performer. She is also tied for No. 9 on the IAAF all-time world performers list with two others. The collegiate record she broke? None other than her own, set two days prior in the semifinals in 12.47 (+1.2m/s) to win by nearly half a second over eventual national runner-up Kori Carter of Stanford, who ended up setting a collegiate record of her own in the 400 hurdles. Rollins’ 12.47 surpassed the 12.48 posted by USC’s Ginnie Powell in 2006. Her indoor season followed a similar arc to her entire 2013 campaign as a whole, winning the Tiger Challenge 60 hurdles in 7.78 to break Powell’s record of 7.84 from 2006. She did not run slower than 7.96 for the remainder of the season, ending with 7.82q and 7.79 performances to win the NCAA Indoor title in the event, giving her the three fastest times in collegiate history.
