What a great season for all three athletes, said Bobby Farrell, director of track & field and cross country. I'm so proud of each of them. They are not only talented but also three of the hardest workers we have on the team. They are truly committed to be great and they'll be back next year. Now it's tie to focus on having a huge outdoor.
It was the first NCAA indoor championship appearance for the trio who previously qualified for the outdoor championships in prior seasons. Serrao and Kevin O'Sullivan competed in Eugene, Oregon during the 2025 season and Brian O'Sullivan earned a trip to Hayward Field in 2024.
