Glen Ellyn, Illinois - The Scarlet Hawks Track and Field Teams traveled to Glen Ellyn, IL for the Chicagoland Championships. The meet hosted by College of DuPage gathered institutions from the Chicagoland area.

The competition was split into two days, women competing on Friday, April 10^th and the men the following day.

The girls in the field events really stepped up and turned in personal bests in their events. Venika Jarvis had a strong showing in the 200m as well. 

Field events were represented well again on Saturday, during the men's competition, with season best efforts from David Foreman and Joseph Yassin, in the Discus Throw and Teva Venet, 9^th in the Long Jump.
