LADY AGGIES CHARM WITH THIRD STRAIGHT T&F TITLE
NCATAGGIES.COM
Sat, Feb 23
LANDOVER, Md. (February 23, 2019) – The North Carolina A&T track and field teams are starting to become historic and the student-athletes who comprise those teams are becoming legendary. For third straight Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Indoor Track and Field Championship, the N.C. A&T Aggies swept both championships to become the first university in MEAC history to sweep the men’s and the women’s indoor championships three years in a row. The women posted 174 points to beat Florida A&M (118.50), Bethune-Cookman (98), Norfolk State (78) and Morgan State (48.50) in the top-5 at the Prince George’s County Sports & Learning Complex. Whenever historic and N.C. A&T Athletics are mentioned, senior Kayla White is starting to become a part of the conversation. White, the world leader in the 200 meters, was named the meet’s Most Outstanding Runner after winning the 200m and 60-meter hurdles on Saturday. She finished second in the 60m to score 28 points for the Aggies throughout the meet. Duane Ross, the Aggies director of track and field programs, was named Outstanding Coach. White continues to add to her impressive credentials as a student-athlete at N.C. A&T. White has won six gold medals at the MEAC indoor championships. She has won the 60mh all four years of her career and she was a 60m and 200m title to her career totals. She will go into the MEAC outdoor championships with eight gold medals.

LANDOVER, Md. (February 23, 2018) – The North Carolina A&T track and field teams are starting to become historic and the student-athletes who comprise those teams are becoming legendary. For third straight Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Indoor Track and Field Championship, the N.C. A&T Aggies swept both championships to become the first university in MEAC history to sweep the men’s and the women’s indoor championships three years in a row. The men now have a chance to capture all three MEAC track titles after winning cross country in the fall. The Aggie men will go for the trifecta in May during the MEAC outdoor championships held at N.C. A&T's Irwin Belk Track. The men posted 191 points to beat Bethune-Cookman (141), Norfolk State (119), Morgan State (41) and S.C. State (30) in the top-5. Freshman Regan Kimtai was named earned Outstanding Runner honors and N.C. A&T’s director of track and field programs Duane Ross was named Outstanding Coach. What is notable about Kimtai winning outstanding runner is that for a program known as SprinterU, Kimtai is not a sprinter. Kimtai won the award by winning the 5000 meters on Thursday and the 1 mile and the 800 meters on Saturday to score 30 points for the Aggies. “We’re a complete team now,” said Ross about the Aggie men. “We no longer have to wait on Saturday and the sprint finals before we start putting up multiple points. Our throwers can put up a lot of points and our distance runners performed really well. We are a lot stronger on the men’s side than we used to be.”

Kayla White has qualified for the finals in both the 60m she finished 2nd in her heat, and the 200m which she won her heat.
Didnt check all the results to see what anyone has done, just knew she was running these events.
Looks like she'll be running for national titles tomorrow on ESPN3

Kayla had a very strong 1st day: 1) 60mh (3rd fastest overall) her heat had two false starts, showed her mental toughness by winning her heat; and,
2) 200m (fastest overall) her back stretch was impressive.
Shout out to Madeleine Akbundo who just miss the 60mh hurdles by 0.02.

Kayla White is simply unreal. She has put a tremendous amount of work in since she’s been at A&T and should be a model of excellence and hard work for everyone on campus, athletes and non-athletes alike. Good luck to her this afternoon.
