Michigan’s Savannah Sutherland concluded her track and field college career Saturday in record-breaking fashion.

The senior from Saskatchewan won the 400-meter hurdles national title in 52.46 seconds at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon, finishing 2.20 seconds faster than second-place runner Akala Garrett of Texas.

Sutherland’s time broke the previous NCAA record of 52.76 seconds, set in 2018 by Kentucky’s Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone.

Sutherland also won the national title in the event in 2023 and finished second in 2024.

She has had success on the international stage as well, finishing seventh at the 2024 Olympics.

She was the first Canadian to reach the event finals since 1996.

Michigan finished 26th at the NCAA Outdoor Championships with 10 points.
