CLEVELAND, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) — With another record-setting season in the books for the Eastern Michigan University Department of Athletics, the Eagles finished near the top in the battle for the Mid-American Conference all-sports championships. The women's athletic program turned in a runner-up showing in the race for the Jacoby Trophy, while the men's athletic program turned in a fourth-place finish in the battle for the Reese Trophy.
It marked just the second time since 1999-2000 that Eastern Michigan placed inside the top-four spots in both standings. The other time occurred in 2013-14 when the Green and White were third on the women's side and fourth on the men's.
