ODAC Indoor Track & Field Championships Set for Two-Day Showcase

Roanoke College Serves as Host at Kerr-Cregger Field House

SALEM, Va. — The final winter championship of the season to commence returns to Roanoke College with the conference's track & field stars descending on Kerr-Cregger Field House in Salem on Saturday and Sunday, February 24-25, for the ODAC Indoor Track & Field Championships.

Competition promises to be strong not only between the women's and men's ranks but throughout the event schedule with several ODAC records already set this season, not to mention high national rankings for conference stars on most Division III performance lists. Competition begins on Saturday with field events at 12:00 p.m. ET followed by track disciplines at 3:30 p.m. ET. Action recommences on Sunday at 11:00 a.m. ET and 2:30 p.m. ET for field and track events, respectively. Awards are expected to be presented around 7:00 p.m. ET.

The University of Lynchburg, ranked ninth in the country on the men's side of the ledger, has its eyes set on a third straight sweep of the ODAC trophies. The Hornets men won for the second time last year, but it is the Lynchburg women with the longer streak, having won four consecutive titles.

    Note: The first time listed for track events over 60 meters is the ODAC seed time. The second time is the time that is applied for NCAA ranking. The time in parentheses was either converted up for ODAC ranking purposes, or down for NCAA rankings based on the size of the track during competition.
