The 2025 New Mexico Activities Association (NMAA) State Track and Field Championships have concluded, with the Class 4A-5A meet held on May 16-17 and the Class 1A-3A meet held on May 9-10.

1. Cleveland High School won the Class 5A Boys title with 73 points

2. Organ Mountain High School finished second in Class 5A Boys with 64 points.

3. La Cueva High School finished third in Class 5A Boys with 60 points.

With a ferocious power kick, Corbin Coombs roared ahead of Vause over the final 450 meters to win the 5A title in 8 minutes, 50.22 seconds, demolishing the previous state record and besting one of his closest rivals by nine seconds.

Eldorado’s Matt Tebo held the former state best of 9:07:38 set in 2006; both Coombs and Vause (8:59.85) finished well under the former University of Colorado-Boulder runner’s mark. Coombs, a Wake Forest commit, now holds the 3,200 and 1,600 state records after he ran a 4:06.17 in the latter event last season.

Congratulations to Albuquerque Academy, winner of the Class 4A Boys Title at the 2025 Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico State Track & Field Championships.

2. Artesia High School won 2nd place with 71 points

3. St. Pius X placed 3rd with 65 points.

For girls state track and field again this year all eyes were on Gianna Rahmer and she did not disappoint. Rahmer added to her already-impressive legacy Friday, rolling to a win in that race  dominanting at 10:33.80. She creamed her previous 3,200 record of 10:54.72 set at last year’s state meet just hours after helping the Eagles win a title and set a new state record (9:38.17) in the 4×800 relay.
