15th Championship in 31 years is utterly amazing.

Go inside the field house sometime and look at the national championships sign. It's astounding.

I think it's shameful that the women's track team didn't get at least the front page of Sunday's Advocate sports section to themselves. This is unprecendented for The Advocate whenever an LSU team wins a national championship. In the past, the track has gotten at least top billing on 1C and sometimes 1A as well. In 1997, when the baseball team and the track team won national championships on the same day, The Advocate had two sports sections (Sports I and Sports II) so that each team could get its due. Instead, The Advocate gave the baseball team 1A and 1C after losing and relegated the track team to page two. Does this make any sense? Compare this to the Tuscaloosa paper that gave the Alabama softball team 1A and 1C on the day after they won the national championship last week. I've heard that there's a new sports editor who has been on the job for a couple of months. I hope he gets an earful from angry track fans.

12.6 for men and 18 for women.
