Men’s track team finishes 14th at NCAA Indoors

The men’s 4x400 meter relay team took the silver medal, while Michael Frater and Jackson Langat earned all-America honors, as the Flyin’ Frogs tied for 14th place at the 2003 NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships at the Randal Tyson Track Center on the Arkansas campus this weekend.

TCU scored 15 points in the meet, tying Southern California and Ohio State. Arkansas came away with the team title with 52 points. Houston, the Conference USA champions, scored four points.

TCU’s 4x4 quartet of Brandon Simpson, Jackson Langat, Jabari Fields and Jerry Harris, challenged LSU the entire race, but came up just eight one-hundredths of a second shy of a national title.

Michael Frater had the best individual performance for the Frogs at the meet, placing fifth in the 60-meter dash finals with a time of 6.64 seconds.
