    Men's Track & Field
An early superstar of the men's track and field program, Adegunwa captured five Centennial Conference individual titles during his outstanding career. He won three consecutive 400-meter hurdles golds at the outdoor meet, including a CC record-setting run of 53.52 seconds at the 1999 championship, and was named Most Outstanding Performer of the Meet the following year, when he also grabbed gold in the 400-meter dash. Adegunwa still holds outdoor program records in the 400 hurdles (51.74) and high jump (6-8) to go with an indoor benchmark in the 400 (49.76). His top high jump mark still ranks among the top 10 in conference history.
