Wrestling Star Brock Lesnar’s Daughter Just Set a Colorado Track & Field Record

Dec 8, 2023, 5:09 PM

Brock Lesnar has become a household name in America thanks to his stardom in both the UFC and WWE. Now his daughter is making waves in the sports world as well, right here in Colorado! 

The WWE superstar and former UFC Heavyweight Champion has daughter, Mya. Mya goes to Colorado State in Fort Collins where she competes as a shot putter. Last week Mya set a school record with a mark of 18.50 meters at the Mines Alumni Classic, crushing the previous school record of 17.55 meters.

The record-breaking performance by the junior earned her the Mountain West Women’s Field Athlete of the Week award. Lesnar now leads the nation for women’s shot put.

Mya is from Minnesota and transferred to CSU from Arizona State. She also competes in Hammer, Discus and Weight Throw. She’s been an All-Mountain West athlete in both indoor and outdoor track and field competitions.
