Track and Field complete successful tuneup event

Junior Joshua Word posted the second-fastest 60-meter dash time in Marquette history at the UW Shell Shocker

In their final tuneup meet before the reigning conference champions head to New York City to defend their BIG EAST title, the Marquette track and field team first had to make a stop in Madison, where they competed in the UW Shell Shocker Friday. The team fared well as a few Golden Eagles won events, while others placed.

To lead off, junior Joshua Word took third in the 60-meter dash, but finished second all-time in school history with a time of 6.
