Track and Field Struggles in Team Events, Thrives Individually

The Loyola men’s and women’s track and field teams wrapped up their indoor seasons, placing in the bottom of the team standings at the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Indoor Track and Field meet in Cedar Falls, Iowa, Feb. 26.

The men’s team finished last in the conference standings, while the women’s team fought off Bradley University to seal an eighth place finish out of nine teams. Pre-meet favorite Wichita State University took home gold for both the men’s and women’s teams. The Shockers collected five-times the points Loyola had.

Although the Ramblers’ team outcomes were disappointing, first-year head coach Bob Thurnhoffer said it wasn’t a surprise.
