Ellery Lincoln, a senior at Lincoln High School in Portland, Oregon , will graduate early and enroll at the University of Oregon in January, forgoing her final high school track and field season to compete for the Ducks during the 2026-27 indoor campaign. The news was first reported by DyeStat, and later reported by the Eugene Register-Guard, part of the USA TODAY Network . "I just wanna say that there's a lot of thought put into this decision and the people around me wouldn't let me make a self-destructive choice," Lincoln told DyeStat. "And I've got a lot of people in my corner helping support me through this transition and I feel very confident about where I'm going." The decision comes after Lincoln capped her high school cross-country career with a second consecutive OSAA Class 6A state championship last weekend. She won in a course-record 16 minutes, 57.6 seconds at Lane Community College. Lincoln has established herself as one of the most accomplished distance runners in Oregon high school history.
