The Grambling State women and men track and field teams pulled off the sweep at the 2006 SWAC Outdoor Track and Field Championships.

On the women' side, the Lady Tigers totaled 144.5 points to take the title. Alabama State was second with a score of 134.5; Jackson State finished third with a mark of 119 team points.

Grambling State held true in being strong in the distance events. In the women's 1,500-meter run, Sha'tina Anderson finished first with a time of 4:57.19. She led three other Lady Tigers (Neia Richard, Melissa Dixon and July Phillip) as Grambling State took the top four places in the event.

On the men's side, Grambling State totaled 179.5 points for first place while Jackson State finished with 143.50 team points. Prairie View A&M placed third with 132.5 points while Southern was fourth with 130 team points.
 
Congrats to Gram on the sweep.

I'd love to see how JSU did in the field events in men's. And kudos to our women for getting better and better.
