Anderson will be in the mile
Syracuse Orange sophomore runner Benne Anderson made the qualifying list for next week’s NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships at the Virginia Beach Sports Center in Virginia Beach, VA.
Anderson earned the 16th and final spot in the men’s mile with his school record time of 3:54.12. He was able to get into the meet when the two fastest milers this season, UNC’s Ethan Strand and Virginia’s Gary Martin, opted for other events at the meet. The fastest qualifier in the field is Washington’s Nathan Green with a 3:50.74.
