MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) -- The Eastern Michigan University track & field teams return to action this weekend for the Mid-American Conference Indoor Championships in Mount Pleasant, Mich. The two-day meet is hosted by Central Michigan University and spans from Friday, Feb. 26 through Saturday, Feb. 27.
Last season, the women's squad took home the coveted MAC indoor title in dramatic fashion, Feb. 29, 2020, in Akron, Ohio. The Eagles found themselves in second place after the first day of competition with Northern Illinois holding the top spot. The two institutions were neck and neck late on the second day of competition, but the Green and White pulled away to defeat the Huskies, 104-102, for its third MAC indoor championship in five seasons.
