For years, the women’s indoor track team always came in second or third in the Conference USA championships, until they got over the hump last year and won their first league title in history. In Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 24-25, the Miners defended their title and managed to win their second C-USA championship in a row.
The Miners tallied 120 points throughout the two days of the meet to fend off a very strong Western Kentucky team with 106. WKU came into this championship as the reigning outdoor champion, and managed to go toe-to-toe with the Miners for much of the championship.
