HOUSTON, Texas – The Phil Hansel Invitational, Hosted by the University of Houston got underway on Friday. At the end of the day's six events, the Aggies were sitting in ninth place.
The standings after day one should not be used as a barometer for the team's success according to head coach Rick Pratt, as he said, "We had a great first day today and the scores are not an indication of our performances. In every event today we're better than we were this time last year and that is very encouraging. We finished with some good relays tonight and I'm expecting us to get better as the meet goes on.
