The University of Central Arkansas track & field teams, led by Mena's Zach Jewell, wrapped up the 2020 Southland Conference Indoor Track & Field Championships on Monday.
Jewell tied his school record in the 60m with an effort of 6.75. His run earned him the fastest man in the SLC. He broke his own school record in the 200m with a run of 20.98 and finished in second just one tenth of a second behind first.
From the Athletes – Senior Zachary Jewell
"I looked back and I was just filled with joy. Usually, it takes a while for the victory to set in. As I was coming to the line I looked over and saw that I was out in front. Instantly, I knew something good had to come out of that. I ran my best in the 200m and it's been a long road since the first week when I pulled my hamstring. I've been working hard and I'm happy the hard work has paid off."
