Georgia men's track and field team captures first-ever national championship

Petros Kyprianou has done it again.

In one calendar year, Kyprianou has captured two national championships. First, it was guiding the Georgia women's tack and field team to an indoor national title three months ago. On Friday, the Georgia men's track and field team won its first-ever outdoor national title in Eugene, Oregon.

The Bulldogs' men scored 52 points to win the championship. Florida finished second with 42 points.

Georgia was aided early by junior Denzel Comenentia, who won the hammer throw and shot put Wednesday. The first Bulldog to score Friday was senior Cejhae Greene, who finished seventh in the 100-meter dash.
