The 2019 NCAA cross country individual champion Weini Kelati and Adva Cohen will line up for the 5000-meter race just two weeks after completing the cross country season and Charlotte Prouse and Emily Martin will be making their first appearances of the year in Boston in the 5000.

Alondra Negron, who ran just once during the cross country season at the NCAA championships, will appear in the 3000-meter.

In addition, freshman Gracelyn Larkin will get her first indoor collegiate experience in the mile, leading off the day for the Lobos at 11:12 a.m. ET (9:12 a.m. MT).
