NORTHFIELD, Minn. – The Saint Mary's track and field team is set to compete at the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) Indoor Track & Field Championships meet held Thursday-Saturday at the Carleton College Recreation Center in Northfield.
Last year, the Cardinals had themselves a nice outing as the men's compiled results earned them a total of 11 points and an 11th place finish. The women's team came together to compile a total of 32.5 points to finish eighth which was the women's highest place in the indoor MIAC Conference Championship since 2007 and their highest placement in 18 years!
They are looking to replicate if not improve on these scores this weekend.
