The 2022-23 season isn’t quite over for Marquette athletics, as the outdoor track & field team has two men who have qualified for the West Preliminaries this week. The event is being held at Sacramento State in California, and the best performers from this prelim will advance to the finals June 7-10 in Austin, Texas.
First up is Mitchell Van Vooren, who will be competing in the 400 meter hurdles. Van Vooren posted a time of 52.14 seconds in the event at the Big East Outdoor Championships, and that earned him the #47 seed out of 48 spots in Sacramento.
