Hoffman qualifies for the 400-meter hurdles with the Philippines on Wednesday, booking her first ticket to the Olympic Games in her illustrious career.

The five-year Duke track star specialized in 400m events during her years in Durham (2017-22). She earned her first two All-ACC First Team nominations in 2019, first as an individual in the 400m during the outdoor season before being part of a 4x400m relay during the indoor season.

Her 2021 season remains one of the most decorated campaigns in recent Duke track history. She made the USTFCCCA All-American First Team squad in the outdoor 4x400m relay and the USTFCCCA All-American Second Team in the 400m hurdles, and she won the ACC silver medal and made the All-ACC First Team squad in the latter event.

Hoffman also earned two All-ACC Second Team nominations in the indoor distance medley relay in 2019 and 2020.
