The Kentucky Track and Field program had quite a weekend at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon. Several Wildcats won medals while one broke a collegiate record.
Women’s team finishes big
The women’s team finished in third place with 50 points thanks to a record-breaking individual title for senior star Abby Steiner and a win in the 4x400m relay. Last year, the team won just 13 points and finished in 21st place.
Steiner won the 200m title in a collegiate-record 21.80 seconds. The previous record (21.96) was set by LSU Tiger Favour Ofili, who finished right on Steiner’s heels during Saturday’s event.
