The encouraging aspect of the '16 Championship Finals is that UH Men are on track to double their total score from '15. As far the Lady Coogs are concerned, this team is stronger than the '15 team which failed to tally a point. but their outlook for '16 is the same.

Agreed. Coogs have an incoming class for both men and women that should boost this team into national title contention with the amount of returning athletes. Track and Field for UH is back.
I’m excited for this week and these kind of tweets are getting me pumped up. Wish I could attend as I love track meets; there is always something going on. I recommend attending one if you get a chance.

4x100 sets a school record and finishes 2nd behind LSU at 38.44, just .02 back.
That hurt, but happy for getting on the podium. Burrell ran a hell of an anchor leg and a few more meters we would have taken it.
Oh yeah, just ran out of track. 6th fastest NCAA time of all time; LSU’s time was the 2nd fastest NCAA time this year.
Edit: time puts the Coogs into the 6th fastest school of all time. Time was actually 12th all-time (LSU was 11th).

Lattin runs a 13.80 into a head wind to finish 5th in the 110M hurdles. Great year for the freshman.
I just love being able to flip on the TV and watch our university compete on a high level.
Go Coogs!

Burrell finishes 4th, .04 behind the winner in an extremely tight race. Great year for him as well.
That’s it for the Coogs in 15/16, both in track and as an athletic department. Seasons start back up in the fall.
Coogs score 17 points this year which is their 8th highest ever and highest since 1989.
Coogs finish 10th overall. Highest finish since 1985.
Florida is the overall winner.

And here’s info about the rest of the meet, big news was a freshman from A&M breaking a 50 year old record in the 800 with the 8th fastest time by an American (not just collegian):
