The 2022 Big South Outdoor Track And Field Championships are in the books and it was a record-setting day for NC A&T. The A&T women claimed their first (and only) Big South title while the men fell just short, coming in at one point behind host High Point University. The Hampton University women had a solid showing as well, finishing third.

Below are a few highlights from Wednesday’s action.
