WWE and UFC legend Brock Lesnar's daughter Mya Lesnar, is carving out her legacy not in the ring but in the shot put circle. At just 23 years old, Mya is making waves in collegiate athletics as one of the top track and field athletes in the NCAA. Though she shares a last name with her high-profile father, Mya is focused on her own path.

Mya dominates the Mountain West Conference

This past weekend, Mya clinched her fourth consecutive Mountain West Conference (MWC) outdoor shot put gold, delivering a stunning throw of 18.61 meters. The victory took place at the 2025 Mountain West Outdoor Track & Field Championships and continues her streak of dominance in the sport.

In that same event, Mya launched a throw of 19.60 meters (64 feet, 3.5 inches), which catapulted her into the top three women's shot put performances in NCAA history. The throw also smashed previous school and conference records, positioning her as the top-ranked female shot put athlete heading into the 2025 NCAA Division I Outdoor Championships. Mya's rise has been nothing short of spectacular since joining Colorado State University.

Her accolades now include:

2024 Mountain West Female Athlete of the Year

NCAA Indoor Shot Put National Champion

School record holder with an 18.50-meter toss set at the Mines Alumni Classic in December 2023

After her recent win, Mya shared an emotional moment with her family and supporters.

"I got very emotional. Not because of my mark, but because all my family got to be here, even my dog. I have a couple more months to focus on track, and I’ve sacrificed a lot to do this. The support from my teammates and boyfriendβ€”it’s been great. I have to be confident at this age and this level. It’s senior day, and I only have two more months of my college career."
