Texas Longhorns Athletics - Track and Field sweeps Big 12 Outdoor ChampionshipsPublished by
Track and Field sweeps Big 12 Outdoor ChampionshipsPublished by Texas SID on May 17, 2015 AMES, Iowa – Track and Field completed the double sweep of the Big 12 Conference Championships on Sunday as the men and women claimed the outdoor titles to go with their indoor wins in February. It marks just the fourth time in Big 12 history a team has swept all four track and field team titles. The men's team won with 151 points and held off Texas Tech, which had 126.75 in three-day event held at Iowa State's Bergan Track. Oklahoma was third with 107. The women bested K-State with 141.5 points to the Wildcats' 129.5 during the 21 events. Texas Tech was third with 103. It marks the ninth Big 12 outdoor title for the women and the sixth for the men. No school has more Big 12 women's outdoor titles and the men tied Nebraska for the all-time lead. Texas also is the only school from one of the five power conferences to sweep indoor and outdoors for the men and women in 2015. The last time a Big 12 school claimed the double sweep in track and field was 2006 when Texas accomplished the feat. Texas also pulled it off in 1999, and Nebraska did it in 2000. "We talked about from the first team meeting back in September that the step indoors or out was to be winning the conference title," said Head Coach Mario Sategna. "I think the greatest thing about the conference championships is it takes a complete team to win. From top to bottom, it didn't matter the event area. People stepped up across the board."
