After finishing fifth in the indoor championship and tying for second in the outdoor championship, the women’s track and field team remains hopeful for the new season. The Panthers began their journey to the 2016 Sun Belt championships on Dec. 4.
The championship meets keeps team scores as well as counts towards the Sun Belt overall sports championship, therefore more focus is put into these two events. Whereas the individual weekly meets are to focus on individual accomplishments as well as show room for improvement.
“Every meet along the way to those championships serves as a way for each individual to make themselves better, but seeking the team championships is what the season is all about,” head coach Chris England said in a Georgia State Communications press release.
