It’s not easy to win back-to-back national championships but that’s exactly what a group of Blugold athletes did this weekend.
UW-Eau Claire’s men’s track and field team won the NCAA Division III Indoor Track and Field Championship for the second year in a row.
The Blugold team’s success was led by two individual titles by Josh Thorson, a senior from Plymouth, Minnesota.
Details about the weekend competition are on the Blugold athletics website.
