The Drake University men's and women's track and field teams begin their outdoor season at home with the annual Jim Duncan Invitational.
The long-standing event has been moved up on the calendar and reorganized as a collegiate only meet in which the Bulldogs will host competitors from UNI, North Dakota and other regional universities.
The Jim Duncan Invitational will also allow the Bulldogs to open up their home season inside Drake Stadium on the iconic Jim Duncan Track.
The two-day meet begins Friday, March 29, with field events starting at 3 p.m. and distance events on the track at 5 p.
