For the second time this season, the York University Lions track and field team descended upon Windsor for the annual Team Challenge.
York set 29 more OUA standards, while also amassing a season-high 27 personal best performances. In addition, hurdler Tamarri Lindo bettered his U SPORTS standard in the 60 meter hurdles, coming it at under eight seconds and taking gold. That medal was one of three podium finishes for the red and white in their final meet before Last Chance qualifyers for the upcoming OUA championships next weekend back in Windsor.
