Yvonne Wade has turned around the UNLV women’s track and field program since she took over 10 years ago, but the indoor season hasn’t been too kind to her.
Wade challenged the Rebels to crack the top three in the Mountain West Indoor Championships this year, something the program had not done since the 2000 season.
“One thing we haven’t done yet since I’ve been here is get into that top three in our conference,” Wade said on Wednesday. “That’s our goal. That’s the next step we want to take.”
The Rebels delivered with a second-place finish at the three-day indoor conference championships last week in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
