Alexis Holmes - Kentucky (2020-2022) Penn State (2019)

Alexis Holmes began her career in 2019 as she became an All-American during the indoor season at Penn State. The Track Stars App captured her first ever collegiate 400 meters race and victory at the Simmons-Harvey Big Ten Invitational, hosted by Michigan. She went on to win her next three indoor 400-meter finals including a 52.14 finish at the Big Ten Championships. She was the only freshman in the race and she qualified for the NCAA indoor 400 meters competition. Holmes earned her first All-American honor after placing fourth at the 2019 NCAA Indoor Championships 400 meters final at 52.37.

A native of Hamden, Connecticut, Holmes won the 2019 Big Ten outdoor title in the 400 meters before transferring to Kentucky. As a sophomore she delivered Kentucky a 2020 SEC indoor championship in the 400 meters and a runner-up finish in the 1,600-meter relay with teammates Megan Moss, Abby Steiner and Chloe Abbott.

After the 2020 outdoor season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Holmes' hopes of a NCAA title was again delayed due to injury during the 2021-22 school year after she competed in just one meet. Holmes trained hard reclaiming her SEC indoor 400 meters gold medal with a finish of 50.77 in 2022. She and her 1,600-meter relay squad collected third place finishes at the SEC Indoor Championships and the NCAA Indoor Championships.

The foursome of Holmes, Steiner, Karimah Davis and Dajour Miles went on to set the NCAA on fire during outdoor season. In Holmes' final collegiate season, she missed out on her 400 meters NCAA title, placing fourth at 50.71 in the championship round. A weeks prior, her 1,600-meter relay squad set an NCAA record of 3:21.93 while winning the SEC championship. They went out with a bang at the NCAA championships taking the gold and making Holmes an NCAA champion with a time of 3:22.55.

Over her career, Thompson's bright smile on the track shieled fans from her fights with injury, social injustice and a change of majors, but the student athlete persevered and became a champion as a sophomore in 2019. At the Horizon League Outdoor Championships she won the 100-meter hurdles gold at 14.37, while also placing second in the 400-meter relay at 48.55 and third in the long jump at 5.48 meters.
