It may have been a rare rainy day in Albuquerque on Tuesday, but it was just a normal training morning for the Lobo Track and Field team as it prepared for the first outdoor meet coming up this weekend.

Raindrops didn’t dampen the mood of the squad, but rather seemed to bring out encouragement for them to pass on their solid indoor performances to the outdoor season.

“It could be raining in Utah, where the conference championship is,” head coach Franklin said in an interview. “We've got to used to run in less than ideal conditions.”

No doubt the Lobos will have their aim directed at winning as the season moves toward the Mountain West Outdoor Conference Championships on May 10 in Utah.
