UNM sports notes: Track and field, softball and baseball set for big weekend at home

Albuquerque Convention Center is the site of the Mountain West Conference indoor track and field championships, which begin Thursday and conclude Saturday. For the host UNM athletic program, it begins a busy home weekend.

Competition is light Thursday, with men’s heptathlon competition beginning at 10 a.m., women’s pentathlon at 11 a.m. and the men’s (4 p.m.) and women’s (4:20 p.m.) distance medleys. Action resumes in earnest Friday with field events scheduled from 12:30 to 4:15 p.m. and track events from 1:30 to 4:55 p.m.

Colorado State’s men and UNLV’s women last won this meet in 2020; last year’s event was canceled because of the pandemic.
