This weekend will also be the first scored meet of the season for the Racers. Things will get kicked off on Friday afternoon with the discus beginning at 2:30. The long jump and 10K will be the other events going on Friday.
Saturday morning will begin at nine with the hammer throw. Running events will begin at 12:30 with the 3,000 steeplechase. Things are scheduled to end with the final event (4x400 meter relay) being ran at 7:15 p.m.
