Anticipation for Saturday's Drake Blue Oval Showcase presented by Mediacom has reached a fever pitch. It will continue to climb with today's reveal of the full slate of world-class talent set to Drake Stadium.
All told, nearly 80 of the world's top track and field talent will compete in 11 events during the Showcase, beginning at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 29. No ticketed fans will be allowed inside Drake Stadium. However, the event will be broadcast live on Mediacom MC22 and Runnerspace+.
Those talented fields received a boost this week with the addition of Olympic gold medalists Tianna Bartoletta and Shaunae Miller-Uibo to the women's field.
