HOUGHTON, NY – The Houghton track & field teams competed today at SUNY Brockport, in a large invitational. St. John Fisher and Nazareth were the other Empire 8 teams represented.
 
Coach Hager stated after the meet, "Today was a steady day for us. It was a day we continued to just chip away at our best marks and increase our Empire 8 seeds. To be honest, it was a really tough week. Sickness ran wild amidst our team, and we are a little banged up. I couldn't have been happier with today, though. It gets me really excited for Empire 8's in a few weeks."
