Congrats to the track team ! Must have dominated the field events.
20 points in hammer and shot and 10 in HJ.
This is most unexpected, congratulations to the entire team.
I ran XC in high school and grew up loving Steve Prefontaine. After graduating from UGA in ‘13, I moved to Eugene, OR for two years (hence the name DuckDawg). I absolutely love track and field. Way to rep the Red and Black all the way in TRACKTOWN USA! Go DAWGS!!!
Fans make the heros.
Back then decathletes and record holders at the mile distance were as famous as the great 100 meter ( yards then) runners were.
You know to think about it? It really is kind of really, really incredible that the Men's team WON it all, & they are now the Track and Field National Champions!!! The women??? They kicked you know what also, & they came in 2nd place too!!!???!!! Pretty remarkable stuff!! GO DAWGS!!!
