The team finished the season ranked
68th nationally in the U.S Track Coaches Association power
poll.
Emory finished sixth out of seven teams at the University
Athletic Association indoor champions. The Eagles had three
all-conference (top-three finish) performances. Rob Leventhal
won the 800-meter run and Blake Staub took third place in
both the 55-meter dash and the 200-meter dash.
Leventhal's career-best time of one minute and 53.74 seconds
at the conference championships provisionally qualified him
for the NCAA national meet. He had the 13th fastest time in
the nation this season and missed officially qualifying for
the national meet by three one-hundredths of a second, giving
him the fastest non-qualifying time in the nation.
Leventhal's 800-meter run time of 1:53.74 at the UAA championships
is the third-fastest time in school history in this event.
For the season, he won four 800-meter races. Eagle runners
have won the 800-meter run at the conference championships
nine times since 1993.
Staub finished third in both the 55-meter dash and the 200-meter
dash with times of 6.74 seconds and 22.91 seconds, respectively.
This is the third consecutive year Staub has finished in the
top four in both of these events at the conference championships.
