According to Ireporter Online, Nigeria’s Temitope Adeshina matched the national women’s high jump record after clearing 1.97 metres to claim victory at the Razorback Invitational. The Nigerian athlete delivered the best jump of the competition, finishing ahead of Ghana’s Rose Yeboah, who secured second place with a clearance of 1.94 metres.

Adeshina’s winning height equalled the national record she already holds, reinforcing her status as one of Nigeria’s leading high jumpers. Competing in a strong field, she remained composed throughout, successfully managing her attempts as the bar was raised. Her 1.97m clearance ultimately proved decisive, ensuring her triumph over the rest of the competitors.

This performance marked the third time Adeshina has cleared 1.97m in her career, demonstrating consistency at the highest level. Beyond matching the record, she also made credible attempts at 2.00m, a height that would have set a new Nigerian record, signaling that further milestones may be within reach.

Adeshina’s showing at the Razorback Invitational adds to a series of impressive results this indoor season, highlighting her steady technical improvement and physical readiness as the season progresses.
