Southern Connecticut State easily captured the team title with 170.5 points, while Rhode Island finished in a solid second with 114 points. Massachusetts (52) and MIT (35.5) rounded out the top four at the championship event being hosted by Bryant University.

Bouie placed fourth in the 400-meter dash by navigating the track in 47.35 seconds. In addition to lowering his program standard, the mark provisionally qualified him for the NCAA Championships.
