Janyll Barber (Dannemora, N.Y./Saranac) of the Plattsburgh State women's track and field team will make her third appearance at the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track and Field Championships, with this year's championship occurring from Thursday-Saturday, May 25-27, at St. John Fisher College in Rochester, N.Y., as she was one of 22 student-athletes selected to compete in the 400-meter hurdles.
Barber, who qualified for outdoor nationals in the 400-meter hurdles in 2022 and 2019 and the 4x400-meter relay in 2019, enters this year's national meet with the sixth-fastest time in the 400-meter hurdles.

The preliminary heats of the 400-meter hurdles will occur on May 25 at 6:20 p.m., with finals slated for May 27 at 3:25 p.m.
