Stanford had previously beaten the USC team in that year's Pacific Coast championship. One of the highlights of the 1925 NCAA meet was the performance of DeHart Hubbard, an African-American athlete from the University of Michigan. In his final collegiate meet, Hubbard set a new world record in the broad jump with a jump of 25 feet, 107 8 inches. Hubbard had set the world record in the event in 1923, but Robert LeGendre had surpassed Hubbard's record at the 1924 Summer Olympics in Paris. At the 1925 NCAA meet, Hubbard broke LeGendre's record by more than four inches. The Associated Press wrote that the crowd was thrilled by DeHart's leap, which experts predicted would "Stand for All Time":"Competing under the colors of the University of Michigan for the last time, Dehart Hubbard ... today achieved the ambition of his athletic career when he smashed the world's record for the running broad jump ... Hubbard achieved his record breaking leap on his very last jump as he had reached the end of his trials. ... Pulling off his sweater, the 21 year old negro flash swiftly got away to a perfect start, cleared the take-off with perfect form, and sent his body hurdling thru space kicking his legs in scissor fashion just before his feet hit the earth. Hubbard also won the 100-yard dash at the 1925 NCAA meet with a time of 9.8 seconds to set a new NCAA record in that event.Hubbard, Michigan's Negro Athlete, Breaks Broad Jump Record: Experts Say Mark to Stand for All Time; Crowd Thrilled as He Leaps for Almost 26 Feet in College Meet; Shotput Mark Falls; Lanky Texas University Runner Sets New College Mark for the Mile Davenport Democrat and Leader 1925-06-14 In the shot put event, Hartranft of Stanford broke the NCAA and international collegiate record with a toss of 50 feet—one foot short of the world record.
