Brock Lesnar's daughter, Mya, opened up about maintaining her father's legacy as a collegiate champion. In her interview with the Colorado State Rams after the NCAA Outdoor Championships in June 2025, the 23-year-old shot putter revealed,

“I don't think it's set in yet, but I am very, very happy with the progress that I've made at CSU. Honestly 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 have the best relationship and I honestly owe him.” [4:05 onwards]

Brock Lesnar had won the gold medal as a heavyweight wrestler for the Minnesota Golden Gophers in 2000. His daughter, Mya, emulated the feat at the 2024 NCAA Indoor Championships, where she also won the gold medal. Mya Lesnar went a step ahead and ended her collegiate career on a high note this year, as she won a gold medal in the women's shot put event at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
