Spartans Track & Field Gears Up for the 11th-Annual Battle for the Obelisk

Meet Schedule

The Case Western Reserve University men's and women's track and field teams will host rival Carnegie Mellon University (Pa.) in the 11th-Annual Battle for the Obelisk this Saturday, January 26th at 2:00 p.m. at the Veale Center.

"This is a cornerstone competition for our programs and embodies what the sport should be all about; head-to-head team competition," said Head Coach Eric Schmuhl. "This one isn't about record breaking and hitting qualifying marks, it's about beating people and bragging rights."

The Obelisk trophy is awarded to the winning school in what has become an annual dual meet between the two programs started by former CWRU Head Coach Steve Rubin.
