BOULDER – A small contingent of current and former University of Colorado track and field athletes are heading to Des Moines, Iowa, for the USA Track and Field (USATF) Outdoor Championships this week.
The competition begins on Thursday, June 21, and will continue through Sunday, June 24. Three women and one man will represent the current CU athletes, and four former female Buffs will also compete.
Current Pac-12 steeplechase champion Sage Hurta will be competing in that event this week. "Sage had a really great season until the NCAA preliminary round; it was a big disappointment for her, she didn't want to stop there," CU head coach Mark Wetmore said.
