EUGENE, Ore. – Baylor track and field’s men’s squad ended its 2024 collegiate season on Friday evening at historic Hayward Field. Junior Nathaniel Ezekiel was the lone competitor for BU, earning his second-straight bronze medal in the 400-meter hurdles.

The Baylor men totaled 11 team points behind the Nigerian roommate duo of Ezekiel and Chinecherem Prosper Nnamdi (javelin throw).
