Nikkisha Maynard, a former student-athlete at Lincoln University in Missouri from 2001 to 2005, came into her own as a sophomore and junior. Between 2003 and 2004, Maynard captured three NCAA titles and finished runner-up four other times. Maynard forever left her name among the NCAA DII annals in 2003 when she became the first – and still, only – athlete to win both the heptathlon and 100-meter hurdles at the same Championships. Those 20 points from Maynard went a long way in helping the Tigers win their first of five consecutive national titles. Maynard also stood out in the classroom, being named to the National Dean’s List four times.
