The top-seeded Rowan 1,600-meter relay team cruised into the finals of the 1,600-meter relay at the NCAA Division 3 Championship in Wisconsin.
The Profs, with three South Jersey legs, ran 3:11.35 and will race in the final at 6 p.m. Saturday.
Rowan ranks No. 1 in NCAA Division 3 with its 3:08.97 in a meet at Widener in Chester, Pa., last week.
Freshman Marquis Taylor from Woodbury and sophomore Samuel Agbessi from Sterling ran the first two legs, junior Teddy Wilson from Toms River North split 48.26 on the 3rd leg and junior Dallas Hohney from Glassboro anchored in 46.42.
Rowan has the option of using freshman Rajhan Dixon, the NCAA Division 3 indoor 200 champ, in the final.
The College of New Jersey also advanced for the final with a 3:11.76, giving the New Jersey Athletic Conference two qualifiers.
