ST. LOUIS – The Missouri Valley Conference released its pre-championship poll ahead of this weekend's MVC Indoor Track & Field Championship meet where the Illinois State women's team was picked to win their fourth-consecutive conference title and the men's team was predicted to finish third.
After breaking a Valley record with 190.16 points to secure the three-peat at last year's MVC Championships, the Redbird women's team is looking to make history once again in 2021. A fourth-straight indoor conference title would mark the first time in MVC history that a women's team has won four indoor championships in a row.
