University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa discus thrower Hallee Mohr continues her incredible outdoor season after earning a spot in the U.S. Olympic track and field trials at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.
The discus is scheduled for June 24 at 2 p.m. (HST) and will be broadcast live on NBC. Mohr is one of 24 athletes in the field. The top three finishers will qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics provided they meet the Olympic standard of 64.50m.
Mohr recently earned All-America honors with an 11th-place finish at the NCAA Championships, also held at Hayward Field on June 8. She posted a mark of 55.46m (181-11) to become just the fourth Rainbow Wahine discus thrower to earn All-America recognition. Mohr is the first UH athlete since Amber Kaufman in 2008 (high jump) to compete in the U.S. Olympic track and field trial.
