Lane Nine has returned, this time with our first Division One national champion! This week, Ben Weisel is joined by Harvard star Maia Ramsden, the NCAA's most recent 1500 meter national title winner.
Maia joined Ben to chat about her unique background prior to coming to Harvard and details her own "Welcome to the NCAA" moment. And of course, the Ivy League ace dives into her thoughts and mindset before and after the NCAA Outdoor Championships, specifically for her 1500 meter final race.
