The Lady Pirates won their 13th overall MEAC indoor crown with a total of 112.5 points, while Bethune-Cookman finished second with 108.5 points. North Carolina A&T State placed third with 89 points.
Judith Kibii of Florida A&M finished with 27 points to earn Outstanding Runner after winning the 5,000m and 3,000m.
Bethune-Cookman’s Deidra Jordan garnered Outstanding Field Athlete with 19 points after winning the high jump and long jump in the pentathlon.
Hampton head coach Maurice Pierce earned Outstanding Coach honors.
“This was by far the hardest championship we ever had to win,” Pierce said. “I knew it was going to come down to the mile relay but I didn’t know it was going to come that close.”
Hampton trailed Bethune-Cookman by three points going into the final event, the 4x400 relay. The Lady Pirates closed out the championship with a first-place finish in the event to secure the title.
