OSHKOSH, WIS. – SUNY Cortland senior sprinter Amaan Siddeeq (Goshen) won national titles in both the 100-meter and 200-meter dashes during the final day of the NCAA Division III Men's Outdoor Track and Field Championships, hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.

Siddeeq won the 100 meters in 10.59 seconds and the 200 meters in 21.29 seconds. Oneonta's Joe Reed was runner-up to Siddeeq in both races in 10.66 seconds and 21.39 seconds, respectively. Siddeeq earns his first two national crowns after placing second in the 100 meters last year and second twice in the indoor 55-meter dash.

Cortland finished second in the final team standings for the second straight year. The Red Dragons were first by four points with one event remaining, but McMurry University of Texas placed third in the 4x400-meter relay and finished with 35 team points to Cortland's 33. In all, 81 teams scored points at the meet.

With Siddeeq's two titles, the SUNY Cortland Athletics program has had at least one student-athlete, across all sports, win an individual national championship in each of the last 22 years.

Also on Saturday, sophomore Justin Wager (Guilderland) and junior Niko Viglione (Purdys/Somers) each earned All-America honors in the 1,500-meter run. Wager finished sixth with a school-record time of 3:50.74, while Viglione, who set the previous school record earlier this month, finished seventh in 3:52.33. Andy Hodge of Wartburg won the race in 3:46.89.

Cortland's 4x100-meter relay team also turned in an All-America performance with an eighth-place finish. Seniors Kevin Ma (Cornwall), J.J. Riese (Central Square/Paul V. Moore), Stan Cadet (Hicksville) and Matt Bieringer (Center Moriches) were clocked in 41.74 seconds, with McMurry winning the title in 40.54 seconds. Cadet substituted on the relay for Siddeeq, who ran in Thursday's preliminaries but was held out since his 100-meter and 200-meter races were scheduled an hour apart less than two hours after the relay was scheduled.
