BOSTON — Coming off an NCAA Championship in cross country, the University of New Mexico's trio of Ednah Kurgat, Weini Kelati and Alice Wright were all primed for a strong track season.
And, just weeks after cruising on the grass, they took the track by storm.
Kurgat, a sophomore for the Lobo track & field team, set the UNM and Mountain West records in the 5,000-meter run Saturday at the BU Season Opener, joining Kelati and Wright as they all posted superb performances to open the 2017-18 indoor track & field season.
