Men's Track and Field Opens Outdoor Season

GENESEO, N.Y. - The SUNY Geneseo men's track and field team began outdoor competition on Saturday afternoon with a home meet after weather caused a last-minute change in venue.

Hagan placed first at 3:57.72, while Nick Bauman, Connor Hitt, and Matthew Sheehan took second through fourth. Geneseo went on to also win the 4x400 relay at 3:30.83, and the 10,000m behind Emerson Comer at 32:37.13. Pierce Young, Anson Butler, Austin Schoen, Mike Taranto, and Justin Thang went on to place second through sixth in the 10,000m. In the field events, David Lang provided a highlight for Geneseo, taking first in the long jump at 6.19m. Chris Desiderio capped off the first place finishes for the Knights in the triple jump, posting a distance of 12.76m.
