Just by making the trip to Paris, Kimberly Williams has made history. The 2012 Florida State graduate is the first woman in FSU history to earn a fourth bid to the Summer Olympics.

Williams qualified for Paris with a mark of 13.67 meters at Jamaica's Olympic Trials.

Inducted into the FSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2021, Williams is one of the most accomplished women in the track program's history. From 2008-11, she won five individual NCAA titles, marking the most for any female in program history. Williams won 12 individual ACC gold medals over her career, which is the most for any Seminole.

Williams answered questions from the Osceola while training in London, prior to traveling to Paris. She took part in the Opening Ceremonies on Friday with Jamaica.
