Earlier this week, we mentioned that IU might be primed for a track title this weekend. And now for the first time since 2012, Indiana has won a conference title in Men’s Track and Field.

Indiana won the men’s title at the Big Ten Indoor Track and Field championships, held this weekend in Geneva, Ohio. Individual highlights included a long jump title from Treyton Harris, a win in the shot put thanks to WIllie Morrison, and a win in the distance medley relay.
The biggest accomplishment, however, may have been from middle distance runner Daniel Kuhn, who won the 600-meter race in 1:15.23. His time is the fifth-best ever recorded in in this event.
One of greatest performances in @IUTrackXC history. Kuhn's 1:15.23 is No. 5 all-time world indoors.@SHSGoldenBears https://t.co/e1ssKAZUWI
