2018 BYU Hall of Fame

2018 BYU Hall of Fame

Both a star volleyball player and indoor and outdoor high jumper at BYU, Lindsey Steele Metcalf is one of the most decorated student-athletes in Cougar history.

Steele Metcalf began her BYU career with the volleyball team in 2001, appearing in 16 matches. Beginning a pattern, she would repeat three more times, Steele Metcalf transitioned to track and field as the new year began where, as a freshman, she won both the indoor and outdoor Mountain West Conference individual high jump titles. At the NCAA Championships she finished top 10 nationally in both events to earn a pair of All-America awards.

The following year, Steele Metcalf set an MWC single-match record with 17 blocks against UNLV before again winning the outdoor high jump title and placing fifth in the NCAA meet to earn her third All-America recognition.
