Track and Field prepare for Indiana Relays

Related Topics: Track and field, Relay race

With a few indoor meets under its belt, the WKU track team is looking to make a national championship meet and jump into the outdoor season at this weekend’s Indiana University Relays.

Behind veteran leadership, WKU has the personnel necessary to potentially achieve that goal. The program has 11 seniors returning this season, as well as 11 juniors. Some of these upperclassmen are already making their mark this year, such as junior Desmond Mobley, who posted a WKU season-best 1.95 meters in the high jump at last weekend’s Vanderbilt Invitiational.

Senior Ventavius Sears is another upperclassman who has gotten a solid start this season, as he qualified for the triple jump finals after a jump of 14.
