MEDFORD, Mass. – Matyas Csiki-Fejer represented Suffolk men's indoor track & field by competing in the 3K at a Last Chance National Qualifier held at Tufts Gantcher Indoor Field House on Friday afternoon. 

The sophomore competed in the 3000 in a field of 16 runners coming from schools across the country including Bates, Trinity, Johns Hopkins, Lynchburg, Tufts, Williams, Colby, Conn, Otterbein, Christopher Newport, and RPI. Just to qualify for the meet, the St. Louis, Missouri native had to have a seed time of at least 8:40.00, which is significantly faster than the Division III regional qualification time.
