Badger Quad

Our men's and women's track and field teams each placed 2nd behind UW-Madison at the Badger Quad on Saturday. As the team's first meet back after the holiday break the team showed plenty of rust, yet competed hard. I generally expect to see a bit of rust during the first couple meets of the season. Our emphasis at this meet was to compete and not worry about marks or times. i was really happy with the overall effort I saw ad I fully expect to see impressive performances in the coming weeks.

Our next meet is on Saturday with a dual meet against UW-Milwaukee at the UWM Klotsche Center. Field events begin at 10:00am with running events to start after the completion of the field events. I really hope to see a lot of Blue and Gold in the stands and make this "away" meet more of a home meet for us!

Check back tomorrow for pictures from the meet.
