Lion men take third, women finish seventh in first trip to SLC Indoors
The Texas A&M University-Commerce track and field teams finished off a monumental Southland Conference Indoor Track and Field Championships on Monday at the Birmingham Crossplex with the Lion men taking third and the women finishing seventh.
In their first time competing in the Southland championships, the Lion men totaled 91 points for third, while the women totaled 46 points for seventh.
The Lions were crowned Southland Conference Champions in three events, their first conference titles since joining the Southland and moving up to NCAA Division I. J.T. Smith (Klein Oak) won the men's 60 meter dash, Delan Edwin (Castries, Saint Lucia) won the men's 200 meter dash, and the women's 4x400 meter relay team closed the meet out with a gold medal as well.
A&M-Commerce was the only school to finish in top three in both the men's and women's 4x400 relays.
