PROVO — BYU has a long tradition of world-class track and field athletes and, as a result, school records are difficult to achieve. So how do you explain what happened this season? Five school records fell in a matter of 10 weeks, courtesy of four athletes.
It is indicative of the quality of the records and the difficulty of breaking them that all of the records were long-standing marks.
