An exhausted Collin Mulcahy (Batavia/Batavia) collapsed into his coach's arms on Saturday after winning a SUNYAC Championship in the one-mile run at Brockport.

On the second day of SUNYAC Indoor Track and Field Championships, Mulcahy ran just footsteps behind Geneseo's Isaac Garcia-Cassani, whom he had never beaten before, until pulling ahead the final lap of the race. His time 4:08.76 puts him at No. 4 in NCAA Division III as of Saturday evening.

The men's team finished in sixth place with 80.5 points, while the women were fifth with 74.5 points.
