The Buffalo men's and women's track team decided to divide and conquer this weekend as athletes were sent to either the Gina Relays in Michigan or to the powerhouse Penn Relays in Philadelphia.
Well the school year is coming to a close, the NFL just released its full schedule for the 2007-2008 season, and a few things jumped into my mind.
Battling the elements is part of the job description when you compete in outdoor track events. The men and women track teams had to call on this skill over the weekend at the Miami Invitational in Oxford, Ohio."It was a very difficult meet to try to compete in with the different elements that we were facing," said Bulls head coach Perry Jenkins.
Heading into last weekend's battle with Central Michigan, the Buffalo baseball team was holding a 1-12 record, yet the Bulls had a chance for a fresh start with the beginning of Mid-American Conference play.
