The Syracuse Orange track teams wrapped up competition at the ACC Outdoor Track and Field Championships over the weekend.
Sophomore Jamir Brown continued to excel in his first season with the Orange as he took the title in the 110m hurdles in a new Syracuse record of 13.25 seconds.
The meet was delayed by weather for three and a half hours, but that didn’t stop Brown from becoming the third Orange hurdler to win an ACC 110m title joining Donald Pollit and Freddie Crittenden. He’ll head into the NCAA
Regionals as one of the favorites to advance to Eugene.
Another Syracuse runner with a good chance to get to Nationals is Benne Anderson, who finished 3rd in the men’s 1500m run in a time of 3:41.07. Joining Anderson in the scoring column in the event was Drew Zundell who placed 6th in 3:42.15.
Assaf Harari and Conner Ackley finished 7th and 8th respectively in the 10k to complete the scoring for the men who finished 14th. The Syracuse women completed the meet without earning a point, but several Orange have a chance to compete at Regionals with hopes of advancing to the NCAA Championships.
The Clemson women and Virginia men were the team champions this year. Eastern Regionals will be held next week in Lexington, Kentucky and we will have a preview once the final entries are declared.
