Westmont Men's Track and Field won its first GSAC Championship in program history, outscoring second place Concordia by 62 points (241.5- 179.5). Westmont Women's Track and Field was edged out of the championship by Biola 181-180, despite placing first in 10 of 22 events. The men's team won just one running event, but claimed five first place finishes in field events and another in the decathlon. "We knew that we could cover events and we had some remarkable sweeps in the long jump and triple jumps. We scored 18 points in the high jump and took first, second and sixth in the hammer. It was very remarkable, very exciting." Ben Kingsley recorded a team-high 34 points for the Warriors in individual events while Tyler Moore tallied 32 individual points and eight more as part of the 4 x 100 meter relay. Ben McCollum added another 28 points and Shane Rowan contributed 18 points plus eight as part of the 4 x 100 relay team.
