Villanova Splits Track Team For IC4A Meet
Villanova plans to split the two mile relay to gain individual points at the IC4A indoor championships in Madison Square Garden. Coach Jumbo Elliott believes Maryland remains the favorite as 59 colleges compete, with Villanova aiming for a few track event points and possibly one field point. Maryland fields strength in the broad jump and high jump while Villanova risks limited scoring beyond the shot put.
