FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Walter Dix's absence caught up with Florida State in the end.

So did Arizona State, which rallied past the Seminoles in a thrilling finish to the NCAA Indoor track and field championships.

The Sun Devils entered the final event of the meet Saturday night tied with Florida State in the men's team standings. Arizona State then ran the 1,600-meter relay in 3 minutes, 6.34 seconds -- about a second faster than the Seminoles.

Florida State was competing without Dix, its star in both the 200 and the relay. He was out with strep throat.
