Over the weekend, the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships were held in Eugene, Oregon. While North Carolina weren’t a factor in the team championships and no individual Tar Heels ended up winning a national championship in any event, let’s check in on how the seven Carolina representatives did.
UNC’s competitors were led by Madison Wiltrout who finished third in the national in the women’s javelin. The grad senior has been dominant this year, winning every meet prior to Eugene, and setting the school record several times over the course of the season. She continued that at NCAAs and came away with bronze, a 13 spot improvement from 2021.
