LION TRACK CLAIMS BEST EVER FINISH AT SLC MEET May 11, 2008

  HUNSTVILLE, Texas - The Southeastern Louisiana University men\'s track and field team totaled five individual titles, ten all-conference honorees and 129 team points, but it wasn\'t enough to hold off a late-charging Texas-San Antonio squad that used a sweep of the top three spots in the 100 m and 200 m dash to total 138.5 team points to edge the Lions for first place at the 2008 Southland Conference Outdoor Track and Field Championships by 8.5 points. At the end of the three-day competition, the Lions turned in a second-place finish, their best performance at the conference meet since joining the SLC prior to the 1998 season.
