DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Embry-Riddle standout, Mikaela Miles capped off an amazing indoor season with a third-place finish in the triple jump at the 2025 NCAA Division II Indoor Track & Field Championships. Competing in her third consecutive NCAA Indoor Championship, Miles once again rose to the occasion, earning her second career All-American honor and setting a new ERAU all-time record in the process. Miles entered the meet ranked sixth in NCAA Division II, having qualified with a then-school record jump of 12.55m earlier this season. On championship day, she elevated her performance to new heights.
