Tonight in Raleigh, the Duke Women’s track and field team tied Florida State for the ACC Championship with each team scoring 110 points. A key race was the 400 meter run where Duke scored 28 points placing 1,2,4,5, and 8th. Four of the five 400 meter runners ran legs on the winning 4x 400 meter relay. This was the final event of the night for the women.
I believe this is the first time in Duke’s Track and Field history a Duke team (men or women) has finished first in an ACC Championship meet. Congratulations to Director of Track and Field Shawn Wilbourn and his staff and all the team members!
