Head Coach Leroy Burrell has high expectations every year with the track and field program, but this year’s are a little higher.
By season’s end, Burrell hopes that championships will have been earned for both his men and his women, but before that, the teams will have to travel to Lincoln, Nebraska for the Mark Colligan Memorial.
The toughest squads the Cougars have faced this season are Texas A&M University and Texas Christian University, and this meet will tell if the Cougars dreams of a national championship are feasible.
The Cougars are coming off a meet where they won 10 events, so momentum is on their side, but the meet in Nebraska will pit them against some of the best teams in the country.
