Last week at the Desert Heat Classic, Rachel Joseph put up two big marks with a 50.79 in the 400m (No. 10 NCAA) and a 23.36 200m as she broke an ISU individual record for the 15^th time. Joseph took down Arizona's 400m facility record that stood for 21 years, and the junior now holds the top 12 times ever ran in Iowa State history.

She wasn't done.

After a 50.79 400m, Rachel goes 23.36 in the 200m to reset her school record. It's the 15th time she has set or reset an ISU program record.#CycloneSZN pic.twitter.com/fxVGfk4hst
