EUGENE, Ore. -- The Arizona State women duo of Maggie Ewen and Keyasia Tibbs wrapped up the final day of the women's NCAA Championships with both of them earning All-American honors on Saturday at Historic Hayward Field.

In the women's discus -- and her third and final event -- Ewen finished in eighth place with a best throw of 54.66m (179-04), earning the redshirt sophomore her second First-Team All-American honor along with the hammer throw.

Ewen becomes the first female Sun Devil thrower to earn multiple outdoor First-Team honors at the NCAA Championships since Sarah Stevens in 2009.

In the triple jump, Tibbs finished in 14th of the 24 competitors with a best jump of 12.93m (42-5.25). Each of her three jumps were an improvement from the last, going from 12.90 to 12.91 before leaping to her best and final mark for Second-Team All-American honors. 

The junior becomes the first female ASU triple jumper to earn outdoor All-American honors since Anna Van in 1984.

Tibbs and Ewen combined for 5 points to finish in a tie for 46th as a team.

Attendance for today was 12,947 with a four-day attendance of 43,419. Saturday's attendance is the third highest single-day attendance total in NCAA Championship history.
