Ewoi, an 800-meter specialist who had not run a mile outdoors, ended up running the sixth-fastest time in the world this year to hold off Sage Hurta-Klecker of On Athletics Club and Heather MacLean of New Balance Boston, who drove the pace in the final two laps.
Ewoi's time of 4:19.71 broke Nikki Hiltz's meet record (4:21.89) by two seconds and is the fastest ever on North Carolina soil. She attended college in the state at Campbell University.
Ewoi was fifth in the 2023 NCAA 800 meters final and had run a personal best time of 1:58.19 at the Holloway Pro Classic on July 19 in Florida.
"I came in to compete, stay in there with everybody, and at the end, kick. And I won," she said.
Ewoi veered to the outside to go around MacLean, who was seventh in the Olympic Trials 1,500 meters final, and Hurta-Klecker, who was fifth in the Trials 800, coming around the final curve and into a corridor of fans lining the inside and outside of the final straightaway.
Hurta-Klecker responded to Ewoi's move and came up a stride short in 4:19.89, good for No. 6 on the all-time U.S. list. MacLean ran 4:20.41 for No. 8 all-time.
