- This is the first official GSC Men's Track and Field Championship for Lee. The Flames won the Championship Invitational in 2016.
- Alabama Huntsville earned all three medals in the javelin. Over the last three years, UAH has earned five of the six all-conference honorees in the javelin.
- Lee won both relay races, a feat the Flames also accomplished when they won the title in 2016.
-
Christian Noble got his third win in as many days in the 5000 meters.
-
Jeremiah McCain and
Justin Brooks each won a pair of individual events, while Brooks was also a part of both winning relay teams. McCain was on the winning 4x400 relay.
- Justin Brooks is now a 12-time All-GSC honoree, while
Josiah Brooks is now a 14-time All-GSC honoree. They rank first and second all-time in the GSC history in all-conference selections.
- Jordan Pritchard's win in the 1500 meters was the first gold medal for Mississippi College in an individual track event. MC had previously claimed gold in the decathlon and the 4x400 relay.
