NEW ORLEANS - Penn State Harrisburg track & field runner Tatyana Gibson has earned NCAA Division III Indoor All-Region honors from the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA). 

Gibson is just the fifth women's track & field athlete to earn the honor and the first to do so since the 2019 campaign. She was recognized for her efforts in the 800m this season.

Gibson recently wrapped up a stellar freshman rookie campaign that saw her win a New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) Championship in a thrilling 800m race last month. In doing so, the Harrisburg, Pa. native earned NJAC All-Conference First-Team accolades after setting a program record in the event thanks to her title-winning time of 2:15.62.

The top-five individuals in each event from each region earned all-region distinction, in addition to each member of the region's top-three relay teams. Regions included for this award – East, Great Lakes, Metro, Mid-Atlantic, Mideast, Midwest, Niagara, North, South, and West – match those used during the cross country season.

The Lions begin outdoor competition at Goucher on Friday evening, March 25.
