CLOVIS, Calif. – Landon Helms was crowned champion in the men's decathlon and Kaiya Robertson claimed the top spot in the women's 1,500-meter as the Boise State track and field team concluded competition at the 2025 Credit Union 1 Mountain West Championships.

He became the sixth Bronco to win an outdoor decathlon title and the first since 2012. His score ranks third in both MW and Boise State history. Overall, he set five personal bests across his 10 events.

Robertson, who entered the meet with the top 1,500m time in the conference, pulled away from New Mexico's Marion Jepngetich in the final 100 meters to win in 4:19.83. An hour and 20 minutes later, she returned to the track and secured a second podium finish, placing second in the women's 800-meter.
The Broncos also earned podium finishes in the men's 5,000-meter, 1,500m and 4x400-meter relay. Meshack Kuyo took bronze in the 5,000m with a time of 13:41.40, the third fastest in program history.
