B.M.O.C.: Best Manes On Campus
Colleges and universities, we're told, are all about getting an education. But let's be honest - they're also places for admiring women whose hairstyles are blossoming into their prime, and are well-prepared for a long day of studies and activities.
We realize head-turning Super-Hair can be found on campus, so this area honors those styles. Offer your candidates here for Year 23 of B.M.O.C.!
PRINCETON: LUCIA SCALAMANDRE.
A senior from California crossed the country to play volleyball in the Ivy League and major in politics. She earned a fellowship in government service, was named all-league on the court - and now is honored here for gaining 57% of the vote in a four-teammate contest, with one woman scolded by a voter for "dark roots." (Final 1/17/26)
(Second through fourth place: Left-Right: Sydney Bold; Shelby Burriss, Ashtyn Sims tied.)
SYRACUSE: VITA NAIHIN.
A junior from Ontario who crossed the border to play soccer and major in "health and exercise science." Her long waves didn't quite have the success of Maddy Baxter years ago, but she finished third in a City League contest during this term. [Posted 1/3/26]
SIENA: BERRA TOK.
We believe this is our first B.M.O.C. from Turkey - a graduate student focused on data analytics, who wrapped up her college volleyball career in New York after two years at Seton Hall. She won a four-way tussle of teammates with 75% of the vote. [Final 12.28.25]
(Second through fourth place: Sonja Meyer; Natalia Clifford, Doga Diraz tied.)
ARKANSAS STATE: LIZZEE WINKLER.
Not the actress, but a junior nursing student. She can run long distances quickly, and her long blonde waves were strong enough to finish second in a City League contest for the best style in Jonesboro. [Final 12.13.25]
FLORIDA STATE: LILY NICHOLSON.
A junior who transferred from Texas Christian in her home area takes the top spot in Tallahassee. Her long loose blonde hair defeated volleyball teammate Ava Lambert in a showdown 5-1 - and while we don't know her major, more than 5,500 followers on Instagram are waiting to find out. [Final 11.29.25]
COLUMBUS STATE (GA): NOAH GRIFFETH.
Talk about immediate impact! This first-semester student who runs cross-country (and also played softball in high school) defeated more than a dozen other women to claim a vacant City League title. Then her endless layers and waves won an All-Star Challenge with ease, and she's finished first in the Super-Hair Wars standings. No wonder she was voted the best style of the season in "Elite Eight Week." We don't know her major, but to borrow from her Instagram feed, she knows how to "be the sunshine." [Updated 12.13.25]
ST. BENEDICT (MN): ANABELLA WITSCHEN.
Her loose bangs didn't thrill every Hair Fan, but the overall mid-length look of this middle-distance runner impressed enough of them. The junior majoring in "Exercise and Health Science" won half the votes in a three-way final against Emily Gates and Alivia Kortuem. [Final 11.8.25]
(Fourth place: Chaeli Haupert.)
MERCYHURST: CAITLIN DUGAN.
This sophomore cyber-security major with medium-long waves has earned a second year here. Beyond her speedy success in cross-country and distance running, she won the City League title in her hometown of Erie during the summer, then defeated a WNBA player in a Super-Hair Wars round. [Posted 10.18.25]
NORTHWESTERN STATE (LA): LALAINA WOOD.
A junior who plans to become a physical therapist and is skilled at middle-distance running. She leaned forward to beat Jade Longlad 5-4 in a runoff that one voter thought deserved to be a tie. [Final 10.4.25]
(Third place: Marissa Henderson.)
BROWN: OLIVIA FRAGA.
Her "concentration" as a junior is on business economics and architecture. But we understand why Hair Fans would want to concentrate on her long thick hair - which probably is a blur when she runs on cross-country and track teams. It won her an open City League title in Providence during the summer. [Posted 9.13.25]
TULANE: MAIELLA BLANDIN.
A three-way punch-out among volleyball players went to this sophomore from Connecticut. A major in architecture and design used well-placed thick bangs to win 62% support and defeat last term's BMOC in New Orleans. [Final 9.6.25]
(Second-third place: Dayla Ortiz, Skylar Ensign.)
MISSOURI STATE: EMILY GERARDY.
Our "opener" in this season is a star stunning softball player from Omaha. Entering her junior year, this "advertising and promotion" major displays blonde waves which almost won a vacant Springfield City League title during the summer. [Posted 8.21.25]
