Cougars host Houston Invitational following Nebraska success

The No. 23 Cougars are coming home with a lot of momentum following their performances at the Mark Colligan Memorial in Nebraska last weekend.

After competing against the best that Nebraska and No. 18 Oklahoma had to offer, the Cougars have no time to rest, as they’re hosting the Houston Invitational this weekend. Despite welcoming smaller schools Texas Southern, Lamar and Houston Baptist, the Cougars face stiff competition in No. 8 Texas.

Coming out of Nebraska, the main story has been the debut of junior sprinter transfer Eli Hall-Thompson.

After not running competitively since July, Hall won the 200m and was the runner-up in the 60m.
