The track and field teams sent a small group of athletes to Lubbock over the weekend to compete in the Texas Tech Shootout.
A team of nine Mavericks were sent to Texas Tech’s Sports Performance Center for the last meet of the indoor regular season.
Senior sprinter Erik Martinsson competed in the men’s 800-meter. Martinsson led through the first two laps, but a pinched nerve forced him to pull out of the race. He registered a "Did Not Finish." Martinsson set UTA’s all-time record in the event two weeks ago at the Texas Tech Classic in the same facility.
