MONTGOMERY, Ala. — A total of nine members of the Alabama State track and field teams are set to compete at the NCAA East Region Championship in Jacksonville, FL., May 24-27, 2023. This is the most male NCAA regional qualifiers in school history. The Hornets’ contingent includes eight men, one woman and five who are slated to compete in individual events, a tally that includes four who have earned berths in multiple individual events.
In addition to its six individual event slots, Alabama State has qualified for the men’s 4×100-meter relays and 4×400-meter relays.
“The seed was planted during preseason, and now they are reaping the benefits of their work. As we prepare for the meet, the expectation has not changed ‘compete,'” said Head Coach Ritchie Beene.
