MARQUETTE TWILIGHT!
Saturday April 26, 2008

After 6 years track and field is returning to the Menomonee Valley in the form of the Marquette Twilight. After resurfacing the track two summers ago we were set to host the Marquette Invitational last season when we were forced to cancel it due to an untimely April snowstorm. No snow is in the forecast this year as we prep for the Twilight meet. The reason for the Twilight meet you may ask? There is a better chance of calmer winds in the evening. Looking ahead at the forecast, I hope that this holds true! I am sure most of you who have trained at Valley Fields know what the winds can be like.

Field events start at 1:00pm with the Hammer at the MU Throws Field. The rest of the field events start in the Valley at 4:00pm. Running events start at 5:00pm. You can check out http://www.gomarquette.com/ for all the details including meet schedule, heat-sheets, etc. I hope to see many of you tomorrow down in the valley!
