The Case Western Reserve University men's and women's track and field teams will host rival Carnegie Mellon University (Pa.) in the Ninth Annual Battle for the Obelisk this Saturday, January 28th at 2:00 p.m. at the Veale Center.

"It's always a great privilege to host our rival for a traditional dual," said Head Coach Eric Schmuhl. "Every year, this thing can be won by either team and that's a lot of fun to be a part of. Both teams leave better for having competed in this contest."

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.
