April 15, 2025 | Track and Field
BOULDER — The University of Colorado track and field team will be in action across three different meets this week, with student-athletes competing at the Mt. SAC Relays, Bryan Clay Invitational, and Mines Midweek #2 Meet.
The sprints and field event groups will head to Walnut, Calif., for the Mt. SAC Invitational; the distance squad will travel to Azusa, Calif., for the Bryan Clay Invitational; and the remainder of the team will compete locally in Golden at the Mines Midweek #2. The Colorado School of Mines announced that the Mines Pre-Conference Meet is canceled due to expected inclement weather and will be replaced by the new midweek competition. However, the final schedule and participant list were not released as of this writing.
