Don Kirby Elite Invitational
Feb. 14-15 | Albuquerque, N.M. | Albuquerque Convention Center
Washington Husky Classic
Feb. 14-15 | Seattle, Wash. | Dempsey Indoor
New Mexico Track & Field splits up again this weekend for competition both at home and away, with a distance contingent heading to Seattle to compete at the UW Husky Classic while the rest of the squad stays home to host the Don Kirby Elite Invitational at the ABQ Convention Center (Feb. 14-15).
Last week, the Lobos welcomed a field that included 24 men’s and women’s squads ranked among the Top 50 in the nation to the ABQ Convention Center as hosts of the UNM Collegiate Classic. In the first UNM-hosted regular season meet since 2019, he Lobo women (No. 24 in the nation in last week’s USTFCCCA TFRI rankings) finished 7th in the overall team score with 30 points, while the No. 20 men placed 8th with 25 points in total.
Over in Seattle, the Lobos will look for improvements in a variety of men’s and women’s distance events while hunting for an NCAA Indoor Championship qualifying time in the women’s distance medley relay, set for 2 p.m. MT on Friday. Judy Rono (1200), Lou-Anne Pouzancre Hoyer (400), Rebecca Grieve (800) and Pamela Kosgei (1600) will comprise the Lobos’ DMR squad in a field that will likely break the collegiate record.
This weekend’s competition gets started in ABQ on Friday with field events at 11 a.m. and track events starting at 3:30 p.m. MT.
