This is some good news.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.— The University of Cincinnati men's track and field team claimed its first American Athletic Conference Championship on Saturday inside the Birmingham Crossplex.

The UC men's team scored 143 points to claim its first-ever AAC title and its first indoor conference title since 1995, when Cincinnati was a member of the Great Midwest Conference. It also marked the Bearcats' first men's indoor or outdoor title since 2004.

"It's been a lot of hard work to get to our first title since 2004," head coach Susan Seaton said. "I am just so proud of everyone that is involved with the program, all of the athletes, trainers, support staff, and coaches, and I could not be happier."

The UC women's team placed second overall in the team standings, scoring 94 points. It is the fourth year in a row the women have placed second since winning the conference title in 2018.

In total, the Bearcats earned eight conference event titles, as each team won four.

First, congratulations to these excellent Bearcat athletes for being champions!

Second, becoming a high profile, nationally respected collegiate brand is all about winning championships beyond just on a basketball court or football field. This is exciting news...Proudly Cincinnati...Boldly Bearcats...

Excellent and what a way to go out in the AAC. Tracks is pretty big in the Big 12. I could be wrong though

Track and field is so popular in Europe. It has such a long history. Surprised it isnt bigger

Can any sprinters catch a football? We have some openings.
