Track & Field Continues Indoor Season in Louisville

The Murray State Racers women's track & field team heads to Louisville, Kentucky to compete in the Bellarmine Open (Friday, Jan. 21) and the 2022 Kentucky College Invite (Saturday, Jan. 22). Both meets will take place at the Norton Healthcare Sports and Learning Center.

"This weekend, as a group, we have looked forward to for a long time. We get a chance to compete in two meets on consecutive days in the same location. In February down at the Crossplex we will be running on a banked track so getting a chance to run at this newer facility I hope helps us at OVC. We have entered kids in numerous events to try and replicate what could happen at OVC while at the same time getting in much needed reps.," said Head Coach Adam Kiesler.
