The inaugural ACC – B1G Challenge concluded Sunday in West Lafayette, Ind. The event featured the top stars from both the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and Big Ten Conference (B1G).
The Big Ten won both the men’s and women’s competitions. The Big Ten women won 251-102. The men’s event was much closer with the Big Ten winning 179-174.
Beata Nelson and Lilly King dominated for the Big Ten, while Siobhan Haughey held off Mallory Comerford in the most exciting women’s event of the day.
In the men’s meet, the win came down to the final two events, but performances by Vini Lanza and Ian Finnerty helped push the Big Ten ahead.
