After Georgia’s name was called as the NCAA Track and Field champions, head coach Petros Kyprianou gathered his group of seven ladies into a huddle.
“You are a band of bad-asses,” he said before a celebration filled with dance moves, screaming and shouting began.
The Georgia women's track and field program won the first team national title in program history on Saturday, with a 12-point win over second-place Arkansas in a 54-team championship at Texas A&M University. The men’s team finished in third place, its best finish in program history.
This marked the first national championship for Georgia since the women's swimming and diving team brought home an NCAA title in 2016.
