(TRACK) Track?

The women finish 3rd and the men finished 12th.

The women’s team was hurt by a lack of depth in several events, the absence of competitors in several events, no 4x4 team, and the overall depth of the other top SEC teams.

They have several highly ranked recruits coming next year that will hopefully address some of those concerns. (The SEC is always going to be strong)

The women’s team still has enough top talent to contend for a top 5 spot at the NCAA’s this year, the men don’t seem to be as strong. (The men do also have a very strong recruiting class, as does Georgia and some others) injuries have hurt a great deal… even with those who have managed to return.

That said, Track and Field at the NCAA’s championship level is hard to predict, injuries and poor performances can happen at unforeseen times and no one is immune.
We’ll see how it goes, but it is a down year especially on the men’s side.
