Track & Field Readies For MVC Championship

The Drake University men's and women's track & field teams continue their record-breaking season this weekend at the annual Missouri Valley Conference Championship.

This year's championship is spread over Friday, Saturday and Sunday in Carbondale, Ill., with portions of each day's competition broadcast on ESPN3.

Drake's men were projected to finish fourth in the league's pre-championship poll, while the women were tabbed for an eighth-place finish.

Currently, the men's team has recorded 20 performances this season that rank in the top 10 of all performances in the MVC.

That includes three performances that lead the league, including Adam Fogg (1,500m / 5,000m) and David Olowookere (400mH).
