Tiffany helped the Wayland women to their third title in four years at last week's NAIA Indoor Track & Field National Championships in Brookings, S.D., scoring 83 points to easily out-distance runner-up Southern-New Orleans by 20 points. A senior from Artesia, N.M., Tiffany anchored the 4x800 meter relay team to a first-place finish with a time of 9 minutes, 11.19 seconds, anchored the 4x400 relay team to an eighth-place finish (4:11.46), and placed second in the 800 meters (2:14.51).

"Tiff was so close to winning the national title (in the 800). If there would have been two more meters she would have won. She just ran out of real estate," Wayland track coach Brian Whitlock said. "But that's pretty good in an event she didn't even run in high school. (Tiffany was a state-champion 400-meter runner in high school). She has really developed into a good runner and a wonderful young lady."
 
Tiffany has helped the Wayland women to three indoor national titles and one outdoor championship with one outdoor season to go. She is a 13-time all-American. Tiffany also ran cross country for the Pioneers, who were ranked No. 1 in the NAIA much of last season after finishing second in the NAIA in 2017 when Tiffany placed 51st individually.
