WILLIAMSBURG, Va.- The Bucknell Bison men's track & field team won the Colonial Relays on Saturday by earning 121 points. The Orange & Blue edged second-place and hosting school William & Mary by five points.
Bucknell won two scoring events and had ten top-ten finishes to power its victory.
Donner's Debriefing
"I thought we accomplished plenty this weekend. Both the men's and women's teams won the team title and we showed great balance in all the event groups. Our athletes did a great job of handling the adversity of the wind and cooler weather. We tested many of them by competing on back-to-back days. We are looking forward to competing at home three of the next four weekends, including the Patriot League Championships next month."
