Oklahoma State signee Natalie Cook sets another record on the track

Oklahoma State signee Natalie Cook has continued her track dominance.

With a 3,200-meter time of 9:52.45 at the UIL area-round meet on Thursday, the Flower Mound (Texas) star broke a state record for the true 3,200-meter race. She passed the previous record of 9:58.58 set by Brynn Brown (Denton Guyer) in 2021 by a full six seconds.

While that’s the record for a true 3,200-meter race, the Texas Track & Field Coaches Association converted true two-mile races into 3,200 times, so this race technically does not live at the top of the record book.
