Anderson Ties for 12th in Little State Championships

The Anderson University men's track and field team tied for 12th place in two-day Little State Championships, which concluded on Saturday in Marion.

COACH NIC HUFFMAN'S COMMENTS

I was happy to see the competitiveness in the team this weekend. They really supported each other well and did their best. It doesn't always turn out how we want, but we battled some cold harsh winds this weekend. I think it was a great conference booster heading into outdoor conference next weekend.
