The TCU Flyin' Frogs enjoyed an off week last weekend and will resume their indoor schedule on Saturday, February 7, when they return to Houston to take part in the Southwest Classic. The meet will take place at the Yeoman Field House inside the Athletics/Alumni Center on the UH campus, the site of the Conference USA indoor track & field championships.
After two weekends of competing, Head Coach Monte Stratton has been pleased with the Frogs' progress.
"The men were more competitive the second time out," said Stratton. "We are trying to get the pieces in place to run well in Fayetteville on February 13 and 14. That's the site of the NCAA Championships and is a very fast track. We hope to post our best times there. The women continue to make excellent progress," said Stratton. "The first two meets of the season were the best first two meets we've had on the women's side in the nine years I've been at TCU. It bodes well for our chances at the conference meet if we are able to stay on course from now until then."
Two weeks ago at the Leonard Hilton Memorial, the TCU men tied for second place while the women finished second overall in a field of competition that included Texas, Texas A&M, Miami, Rice, Stephen F. Austin, Houston, UT-Arlington, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and Texas Southern.
Field events get under way at 9:00a.m. with the men's and women's weight throw and shot put, while running events start at 11:00 a.m. with the women's 3000m run.
