After three Syracuse runners qualified for the NCAA Division I Track and Field Outdoor Championships on day one of the NCAA East Preliminary Round, multiple runners came up short on Saturday in the second day of action.

The women’s 4×100-meter relay team competed in the quarterfinals but failed to clinch a spot in the semifinals, as they finished .19 seconds away from the final place in the NCAA Championships. The team’s time was a school record.

Senior Richard Floyd failed to qualify for the quarterfinals in the 110-meter hurdles. His time of 14.04 was .07 seconds from a qualifying spot.

Freshman Matthew Scrape also failed to secure his spot in Austin, missing out on a qualification spot in the men’s 5,000-meter quarterfinals.
