We closed out the season with some strong finishes. They collected a lot of personal bests and medals. I am proud of the character this team has shown throughout the year. They followed our protocols and were never shut down from COVID, while continuing to work hard towards the goal of ending the season on a high note. We are sending off a wonderful group of seniors who have made a significant impact on the track and field program here at UNF.Head Coach Jeff Pigg
