Owls top leaderboards at final event of 2016

The track & field team took a break from studying for finals when it competed at the Seahawk Shootout, hosted by Wagner College, on Friday. The Owls took home five first-place finishes in Staten Island, New York.

“The semester is coming to an end,” coach Elvis Forde said. “It was a tough week as our athletes are trying to find time to buckle up for their finals, but nevertheless we had good performances from the bunch.”

More than 10 Owls placed in the Top 10 for the second time in two events. Temple earned 15 Top 10 finishes at the Lehigh Season Opener on Dec.
