Moll Twins Tie For Sixth At World Championships
September 17, 2025 | Track & Field
TOKYO β The incredible, record-shattering 2025 seasons for Hana and Amanda Moll, which started back in January, wrapped up today in Tokyo with matching top-10 finishes at the World Athletics Championships. The rising Husky junior pole vaulters fittingly finished in a tie in the World Outdoor finals, as both finished in sixth-place repping Team USA.
Β
This was the second-straight World Championships final for Hana and the first for Amanda, and thus their first senior level global final competing together. The pair of NCAA Champions both made 15-feet, 3-inches today at the National Stadium in front of approximately 50,000 fans.
Β
Hana and Amanda both went over the opening height of 14-7 1/4 on their first attempts to overcome any opening bar jitters. The second height jumped all the way up to 15-3, and Hana and Amanda both had misses on their first attempts, but went clear with ease on their second attempts.
Β
Neither Husky was able to find their footing at the third bar, which was 15-7. Hana had very close attempts on her first and third tries but brushed the bar just enough to knock it off. Only four women made that bar today.
Β
It wasn't just the Molls in action today from a Husky perspective. Former Husky Gianna Woodruff, a 2015 graduate, continued her amazing career representing Panama, as she won her 400-meter hurdles semifinal in 52.66 to advance to a second career Worlds final. Woodruff had never broken 53-seconds before but went well under today with the second-fastest overall time in the semis. It is a new Area Record for all of South America. She will race in the final on Friday at 5:27 a.m. Pacific time.
