Trey Knight (born 24 May 2002) is an American hammer thrower. He finished in second place at the 2025 USA Track and Field Championships and had a top-ten finish at the 2025 World Championships.[1]

Early life

From Ridgefield, Washington, he is from a family of throwers, with his grandfather, John Gambill, a volunteer coach for his local high school team.[2] He attended Ridgefield High School (Washington). Knight set a national high school record in the hammer throw in 2020 and was named Washington State Athlete of the Year for boys track and field in three consecutive years.[3]

Career

Competing for California State University, Northridge, Knight named the NCAA Division I West Region indoor field athlete of the year in 2025.[4] Earlier, he had competed for the USC Trojans track and field team.[5]

He was fouled out at the NCAA West Outdoor regionals in 2025 and so did not qualify for the 2025 NCAA Outdoor Championships. However, he did go on to throw a personal best 78.15 metres at the Portland Track Festival in June 2025.[6]

He placed second with a new personal best of 78.76 metres at the 2025 USA Track and Field Championships.[7][8] In September 2025, he competed in the hammer throw at the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo, Japan, qualifying for the final and placing tenth overall.[9][10]

On 28 March 2026, he placed second behind Rudy Winkler in the hammer throw at the USATF Winter Long Throws National Championship in Arizona with a personal best throw of 79.33 metres.[11]
