The 1972 indoor track and field team posted a national runner-up finish, tying Michigan State for second place. Powered by Dave Wottle (who would earn an Olympic gold medal several months later) and Sid Sink, and coached by the legendary Mel Brodt, the Falcons made the short trip north to Cobo Arena in downtown Detroit, Mich., and picked up a team total of 18 points at the national meet (March 10-11, 1972).
BGSU tied MSU and finished just one point behind national champion USC. Wottle won the national championship in the 880 yards, while Sink captured the national crown in the two-mile event. The distance medley relay team of Craig MacDonald, Ted Farver, Sink and Wottle also won a national title.
