![]() I thought Bejan (Abtahi) displayed a gutty, senior-like performance this weekend, which sums up what kind of teams we have right now. With four champions and five second-place finishes, we have the right kind of people on our teams. I'm big on checking out trends and I think we've got a nice upward trend going for both of the teams. "We continued to develop new scorers and I thought we followed two consistent themes: we competed as hard as we could and we continued to progress at a steady pace. "Both teams really did what we expected them to do this year," said head coach Wayne Norton. Also, the teams notched five runner-up finishes during the meet. With four first-place finishers, Georgia's teams finished with the most combined champions since 2007 when UGA combined for seven. Georgia had four SEC champions at this year's meet after sophomore Nikola Lomnicka (hammer), senior Bridget Lyons (10,000), sophomore Brian Moore (javelin) and senior Israel Machovec (discus) captured championships. This marks the first time that the Bulldog men have beaten Arkansas, a perennial standout on the collegiate track and cross country scene, since the Razorbacks joined the conference in 1992. This marked the third time in as many days that the meet was delayed because of inclement weather. Another weather delay began at around 6 p.m. The Lady Bulldogs made a four-spot and 29-point improvement from last year to also take fifth (74.50) as LSU (132) won the team title.Ī common theme occurred as Sunday's action was delayed an hour following lightening strikes near Tennessee's campus at 1:53 p.m. This is the most points for the Bulldogs since 2005. In the team standings, the Georgia men finished fifth (83) while Florida (124) clinched the 2010 team championship. Sophomore Aaron Evans set a school record with a runner-up finish in the 800-meter run to highlight the final day of the Southeastern Conference Outdoor Championships in Knoxville, Tenn., on Sunday. ![]()
