2007 Big Ten Men's Indoor Track and Field Championships Preview
Indiana to host Big Ten Championships, Feb. 24-25
Feb. 21, 2007
All 10 conference squads will converge upon the Harry Gladstein Fieldhouse on the Indiana University campus to vie for the title at the 2007 Big Ten Men's Indoor Track and Field Championships. Among the field are two teams ranked amongst the nation's elite in No. 2 Wisconsin and No. 11 Michigan, as well as countless individuals among the NCAA's top performers in their respective events.
Illinois has won 21 Big Ten championships in its history, but has not taken home the title since 1989. The Illini look to 2006 Freshman of the Year Dominique Worsley, last year's second-place finisher in the 60 and 200 meters, to help the team improve upon its third-place finish from last season.
...
Ohio State will lean on its perennially strong throwing squad at this year's championships, led by Lenny Jatsek, the latest of four consecutive Buckeyes to have won the weight throw at the Big Ten meet. Jatsek, a 2006 All-American, is one of five returning first-team selections as Taylor Candella, Gerald Griffin, Joe Gourley and Jeff See won the Distance Medley Relay last year.

Wisconsin Wins Seventh Straight Men's Track & Field Championships Title
Feb. 25, 2007
Championship Central | Final Results
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Led by gold medal performances from senior captains Demi Omole and Joe Detmer, the University of Wisconsin won its seventh straight Big Ten Men's Indoor Track & Field Championship on Sunday afternoon at Indiana's Gladstein Fieldhouse. Winners of 10 of the past 13 Indoor Championships, the Badgers racked up 120 points, distancing themselves by 27 from second-place Minnesota.
The title marked the 22 career conference crown for Wisconsin head coach Ed Nuttycombe, tying him with Illinois' Harry Gill (1904-29) as the winningest track and field mentor in Big Ten history. He is one title shy of former Indiana men's swimming coach James Counsilman's record (195-90) for all conference coaches.
Omole scored first in the 60m dash with a record-shattering run, while Detmer claimed the heptathlon title.
Minnesota repeated in second place in the overall team competition with 93 points. Michigan's silver and bronze medal efforts in the 5000m final put the Wolverines in third with 89, edging out fourth-place Ohio State's total of 84 points. Host Indiana (72) and Purdue (71.5) battled closely to round out the top six.
