The men attempt to win their 11th straight BSC indoor championship this weekend. Considering this is the 11th time the meet has been conducted, I'd say it's a pretty good run. (haha, I said "run")
The men win the title again and the ladies finished second to CCU ...

Does anyone know if other schools have one person heading up all 6 Men's and Women's track and CC teams like Tolsma does? I know he has some very good assistants to delegate workload to, but it's a pretty amazing feat if you ask me.
Doesn't this win make the LU Men's Track Team the most winningest team in Big South History???? I mean 11 straight big south titles is better than the women's hoops I believe. Doesn't that make the LU Track team the most sucessfull program in Liberty University?! This is in response to the tagline of the "women's hoops" on the Index page.
