Ball State's Charity Sue Griffith is the 2023 NCAA High Jump National Champion!
Is this Ball State's first ever national championship of any kind?

LaTasha Jenkins won the 200M in 1999.
Also, Jenelle Rogers earned 5th in the 2023 Heptathalon. Both Rogers and Griffith are Jrs. Impressive.

Turns out this is Ball State's 5th individual National Championship Further context from the MAC's website: "Griffith's national title in the high jump is the fifth national championship by a Ball State athlete and the first since LaTasha Jenkins won the 200-meter dash in the 1999 NCAA Outdoor Championships. Ball State has never won a team national championship but owns three individual titles in swimming (Patricia Bergman in 1970 & 1971) and now two in track & field." Cliff's notes: 2 in women's track and field, and 3 in women's swimming (all by the same swimmer).

random factoid for ya EMU has 55 individual Nat champions EMU has 16 team national championships at the NAIA and Division II level. Would most of those national champs come from those teams?
