Strong Performances From the Hoyas Highlight Florida Relays and Ebanks Invitational

WASHINGTON – Georgetown University's track & field program wrapped up two days of competition on Saturday, April 5 at both the Florida Relays in Gainesville, Florida and the Ebanks Invitational in Fairfax, Virginia.

"I thought this was an excellent start to the season for the middle distance group. We had five guys run 1:48 or faster in the 800m and Tinoda Matsatsa broke his own school record in the event. We have very lofty goals for the season and this showed the team what is possible." - Assistant Coach Brandon Bonsey
