MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. — The longest season in college sports is back for its final installment of the 2016-17 campaign.
After a month layoff, Central Michigan track and field will begin the outdoor portion of its schedule at the University of Tennessee for the Tennessee Rust Buster on Saturday.
With the notoriously unpredictable spring weather in Michigan, CMU, and many other programs around the state, seek refuge in warmer climates.
“When the weather doesn’t change, you have to chase the weather,” Central Michigan Director of Track & Field Mark Guthrie said.
