The Boston College men’s and women’s track and field teams competed in the 2017 ACC Outdoor Track & Field Championships over the weekend, returning home with a number of new personal and program records.
The men’s 4x400m relay team set a new program record, completing the relay in 3:11.00. The previous record (3:11.9) was set 50 years ago, in 1967.
In addition to breaking the longstanding program record, 4 Eagles on the men’s team set new personal bests. Senior Obinna Nwankwo, who was on the record breaking relay team, also set a personal best in the 200m, running it in 22.
