New York, N.Y., January 14, 2022 – After competing in the program's first-ever meet a week ago, it didn't take long for the Monroe Express Men's Track and Field team to set new school record. The Express 4 x 400 relay team of
Wayne Stephenson (Falmouth, Jamaica),
Jeremiah Herbert (Queens Village, N.Y.),
Danario Douglas (Prospect District Hanover, Jamaica), and
Romar Scott (Whithorn, Jamaica) teamed up for a second-place finish, the best in program history, after clocking in a hair faster than last week with a time of 3:27.53 on Friday at the MLK Collegiate Relays at the New Balance T & F Center in New York, New York.
All four also competed in the Men's Distance Medley, clocking in at 11:09.90 for a fourth-place finish.
