Duke senior Brianna Smith earned First Team All-ACC honors after she finished third in the women’s pentathlon at the ACC Indoor Championships on Thursday.
The pentathlon is made up of five events: 60-meter hurdles, high jump, shot put, long jump, and an 800m run.
Smith compiled 4,132 points across the five events, her best mark of the season, and finished behind Notre Dame’s Jadin O’Brien and Alaina Brady to claim the bronze medal.
The Blue Devil led the event in the high jump (1.79m), and she finished third in both the hurdles (8.74 seconds) and the shot put (12.35m). Smith finished fifth in the long jump and 10th in the 800m race.
The stellar performance resulted in top all-conference marks, the second Duke athlete to earn the honor after Christian Johnson won gold in the men’s weight throw the same day.
