The CSU Rams shared a video on Instagram, showcasing her last college competition day.

In the voiceover of the video, Lesnar shared her difficulties and opened up about going into the 2025 Nationals.

"My last page of me, and I'm going to just have fun. That's the process. I actually came in here and I was like, I'm going to do this thing. I walked in here with confidence. I was calm. I had won before. It's been taking a while to get back to number one again. A lot of emotion. Very, very happy. A lot of hard work. A lot of dedication. And then just executing. And not thinking. Not overthinking. Not doing too much. And I think that's what it is," said Mya Lesnar.

Along with her performance in the 2025 NCAA championships, she also spoke about her coach, Brian Bedard, crediting him for her success.

"I would not be where I am without Brian Bedard. Obviously family and teammates, but 100% this goes to my coach. And a lot of ups and downs that we've had together and worked through together. We know that this will live for me. There's more to come," she added.

Brock Lesnar's daughter, Mya Lesnar won her first national champion title at the 2024 indoor nationals, where she registered a distance of 18.53m.
