This weekend, the track & field team was split between the Victor Lopez Classic and the Prairie View A&M Relays. Regardless, records were again broken and top times/marks were set nationally.
The biggest story of the weekend came from Prairie View where the Cougars participated in a special showcase: UH vs Team USA. In both the men’s 4x100m and 4x200m relay teams, the Cougars, along with Texas Southern and the Shreveport Speed Track Club, were pitted against three separate USA relay teams.
This was a test between the defending relay national champions and the best USA Track & Field has to offer.
