The program will be represented in multiple events on day two of the competition. Women's javelin will start at 1 p.m. MT, followed by the men's at 3 p.m. MT. The men's steeplechase will start at 12:45 p.m. MT. The men's 800m will begin at 2:35 p.m. MT.
The men's steeplechase will feature three Cougars who have yet to compete in the event. Sophomore Caleb Johnson will make his debut alongside true freshmen Isaac Hedengren and Wyatt Haughton.
"We are very excited for this weekend because it will give an opportunity for our new steeplechasers a chance to open up in a non-pressure situation," said director of track and field Ed Eyestone. "We have a strong group with them and our mid-distance crew, as well as a few of our javelin throwers who will be competing. I am still fully expectant of some regional qualifying marks coming out of the meet for us."
Up next, BYU will travel to Austin for the 96th Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays March 27-30, Orem for the Utah Valley Invitational March 28-29 and Stanford for the Stanford Invitational March 29-30.
