Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into the world of sports lately, and I stumbled upon something pretty interesting that I just had to share. You know Brock Lesnar, right? The WWE superstar? Well, it turns out his daughter, Mya Lynn Lesnar, is making some serious waves in the sports world herself. I mean, who knew, right?
I started digging into this a few weeks ago. I was just scrolling through sports news, like I do most mornings with my coffee, and a headline about a college athlete breaking records caught my eye. Turns out, it was Mya. So, I began my little investigation.
First off, I looked up her basic info. Mya Lynn Lesnar was born on April 10, 2002. She’s not just Brock’s daughter; she’s an American track and field athlete. And get this – she’s a shot put champion! I mean, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, huh? She really looks like her dad, and she’s got that same fire for sports.
Her achievements? Oh boy, where do I even start? I watched some videos of her competitions. In 2024, she became the NCAA indoor champion in the shot put. This girl threw a whopping 19.08 meters! That’s even better than the 19.07 meters she nailed at the Don Kirby Invitational in February. I was floored. I mean, I struggle to throw a basketball a few feet, and here she is, crushing it in shot put.
Then, I got curious about her college journey. I found out she initially went to Arizona State University. She was a member of the Arizona State Sun Devils’ track and field and cross-country teams. But after two years, she switched things up. In November 2022, Mya announced on Instagram – yep, I even stalked her Instagram a bit, don’t judge – that she was transferring to Colorado State University. Apparently, it was all because of Coach Brian Bedard. Smart move, I guess, because she’s been killing it there.
- She competed at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Eugene, Oregon.
- She finished 12th in the women’s shot put final with a throw of 16.77 meters. Not her best, but still, it’s the Olympic Trials!
I also tried to find out a bit about her personal life, but she’s pretty private. Which, you know, good for her. She does show up in family photos and updates shared by her parents sometimes, and it looks like she has a close relationship with her dad and twin brother. It’s pretty sweet, actually.
So, yeah, that’s my little deep dive into Mya Lesnar’s life. She’s not just Brock Lesnar’s daughter; she’s a powerhouse in her own right. I’m definitely going to keep an eye on her career. Who knows, maybe we’ll see her in the Olympics someday! Keep crushing it, Mya!
Anyway, that’s all from me for now. Just wanted to share my little discovery. Let me know what you think!
