ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH JUSTIN JOHNSON
"I can't say enough good things about our team. We competed very well with too many PRs to count and a few new additions to our top 10 list. In addition, the men's 4x100m relay broke a 13-year school record with an impressive race. We have two weeks to prepare for our next competitions, and we will use that time to build on our success thus far into the season."
UP NEXT
CSUN is off until the week of Apr. 10 when the Matadors compete in the Bryan Clay Invitational Multis (Apr. 13-14), The Mt. SAC Relays (Apr. 14-15), and the Long Beach State Invitational (Apr. 15).
