There were milestones connected to the South-land Conference titles that McNeese State’s Jarrett LeBlanc, Sam Vidrine and Joshua Sawe won during the 2011 league track and field championship meet in Natchitoches. LeBlanc, who won both the 10,000 meter run on Friday and the 5,000 meter run, became the first double event winner for the Cow-boys since the 1991 season when Tom McGrath took titles in both races. He ran 14:55.30 in win-ning the 5000 meters and 31:45.74 when he claimed the 10,000 meter race. With 20 points the Cow-boy junior was his team’s leading scorer. In winning the javelin title for the second year in a row, Vidrine became the first McNeese athlete to do so since Craig Andrus did such in 1983 and 1984. Last year he had become the first McNeese conference javelin champion since Andrus and only the eighth in school history when he took the title. Vidrine threw 218-6 to win this year’s javelin title. He posted that mark in the qualifying round and passed in the finals after he suffered a slight in-jury to his throwing arm. Sawe became only the third Cow-boy to ever win a SLC championship in the 800 meters and the first since Andy Blackmore in 1999. Robert Messer won back to back titles in 1973 and 1974. Seven McNeese athletes qualified for the NCAA regionals but none ad-vanced to the NCAA championship event.
