NORMAL, Ill. – The Illinois State track & field program is set to split for three meets to open up the 2022 outdoor season, as majority of the team will make the trip to Austin, Texas to compete at the 94th Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays from March 24-26. While down in Texas, some student-athletes will also compete at the Bobcat Invitational, hosted by Texas State. A smaller group of distance runners will travel to Raleigh, N.C. to compete at the Raleigh Relays on March 24-26.
LAST TIME OUT
The Redbirds are back in action for the first time since the MVC Indoor Championships, where both the Illinois State men and women finished in second place as a team. At the meet, five Redbird student-athletes were crowned individual champions.
With sweeps of the DMRs and 4x400m relays at the MVC Championships, the Redbirds also became the first team in MVC history to win all four indoor relay events.
