A native of San Jose, California, Jeneba Tarmoh finished her two-year Aggie career as a three-time NCAA National Champion and nine-time Big 12 Conference Champion. Tarmoh also finished her collegiate career with 10 First-Team All-America honors.

A speedster and relay specialist, Tarmoh earned her first NCAA title as a member of the outdoor 4x100m relay in 2010 before claiming titles in the indoor and outdoor 4x400m in 2011. Individually, she finished runner-up in the 200m at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in 2010 and 2011, as well as placing runner-up at the 200m NCAA Indoor Championships in 2010.

At the conference level, Tarmoh won individual titles in the 100m (2010, 2011), outdoor 200m (2010, 2011) and indoor 200m (2011). As a member of the relay groups, she claimed back-to-back crowns in the indoor 4x400m and outdoor 4x100m.

Tarmoh wrapped up her time at Texas A&M with school records in the indoor 4x400m (3:29.72) and outdoor 4x400m (3:26.31).
