National Championships, School Records Highlight Special Season for Ohio State Track and Field's Senior Class

Ohio State’s men’s and women’s track and field teams had no shortage of top performers this past season, including multiple national champions and several others who also broke school records.

Three of the Buckeyes who had particularly memorable seasons were seniors Julia Rizk, Sade Olatoye and Nick Gray.

Rizk and Olatoye both won national titles at the NCAA Indoor Championships in March. Rizk became Ohio State’s first-ever national champion in the mile run for either gender, winning the women’s title with a time of 4:37.63, while Olatoye earned top honors in the weight throw with a toss of 24.
