Seven Benswic make Nationals indoor track and field championships.

Benswic will be represented by seven individuals at the Nationals Indoor Track and Field Championships March 10-12 in Ocean Breeze Athletic Complex, NY. The championships were definitely a surprise for us, seeing that just last year only one runner qualified. Now, we have several making a name for themselves in events they never did.
