Pre Meet

We have arrived in Fayetteville, AR for the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships.  It has been very hot and humid so far.  Fortunately, most of the events are in the evening under the lights.  The meet will be televised live on CBS College Sports on Friday and then on CBS Sports on Saturday...check your local listings for times.  

Our hotel is less than a mile from the track and of course....a Wal Mart.  Bentonville, AR is the world headquarters and is only about 25 minutes up the road.  

Practice has gone well.  Competition for both are gals begins tomorrow (Wednesday).  Sarah throws in the prelims of the hammer at 1:30pm.  (Top 12 move on to Fridays final).  Chelsea runs in the last of five preliminary heats.  Top three in each heat plus the next three fastest times move on to Thursdays semis.  

Look for results on Coach Bockman's twitter page immediately after the events....www.twitter.com/utah_trackfield

We are off to dinner...and a relaxing night.  KK
