The Syracuse Orange track and field teams headed out last weekend to try and solidify positions in next week’s ACC Outdoor Championships and to give athletes options in the NCAA East Regional at the end of May.
First up for Syracuse was The Penn Relays at Franklin Field in Philadelphia. The big crowds were certainly a boost for hurdler Jaheem Hayles who took 2nd in the 110 hurdles in a season-best of 13.57. Hayles now has the 2nd-fastest time in the ACC and he’s going to have a good chance of getting to the NCAA Championships if he can keep this up.
