That time is rapidly approaching.
The Purdue track and field team will be sending 26 athletes to this weekend’s NCAA East Regional in Jacksonville, Florida. The men’s side will feature 11 athletes while there will be 15 female Boilermakers making the trip as well. As sophomore Carmeisha Cox said, the Regional meet is “the best of the best.”
Below are a few noteworthy storylines and entrants into the Regional meet.
