Peninah Mutisya is named the CAA’s 2026 John H. Randolph Inspiration Award 🏆
This award is given each year to an individual whose strength of character and human spirit inspires others to maximize their potential, named for former William & Mary AD John Randolph, who lost his courageous battle with cancer in 1995.

Mutisya broke league records in cross country and track... before a devastating leg injury nearly ended her career. Doctors even considered amputation. Eight months later, she was back on the track — and back on top. winning the 1,500 meters at this year’s CAA Championship.

Peninah, Hampton is proud of you!
