CEDAR CITY, Utah — The Southern Utah Track and Field team will continue its season at the Battle Barn Classic in Reno, Nevada, and the Mountain State States Games in Pocatello, Idaho. The Thunderbirds will separate the team once again as they prepare for the WAC Indoor Tack and Field Championships.

Head Coach Eric Houle said

"This weekend, the teams are split between two different universities. The sprinters will go to the University of Nevada in Reno, while the distance runners, jumpers, and throwers will head to Idaho State University. Once again, I hope that we have placed them at the right level of competition to promote improvements in each of their events, which will hopefully prepare them for the upcoming indoor championships."
