Coming off a strong performance in College Station last week, the university track and field program looks to advance its season this weekend at the Razorback Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark.
TCU holds the No. 1 spot in the Mountain West Conference in seven events and have record times in the men’s and women’s 5,000 meters and 4×400-meter relays.
At their season opener in College Station, the Frogs won six events and broke 13 meet records.
They also set two school records in both the men’s and women’s weight throw.
After redshirting the 2009 season, junior Festus Kigen took the men’s 3,000 No. 1 spot at the meet and set the top-time in the NCAA for that event.
Although the Frogs claimed top honors at the Texas A&M Invitational, they are scheduled to face numerous ranked opponents in Fayetteville this weekend.
Ranked opponents for the men include No. 5 Arkansas, No. 6 Oklahoma, No. 11 Baylor and No. 21 Oklahoma State.
The women face No. 16 Baylor, No 17 Arkansas and No. 21 Oklahoma.
Several unranked opponents are scheduled to compete as well.
The meet kicks off on Friday at 11 a.m. with events throughout the day and into Saturday.
The men’s 3,000-meter event is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday, followed by the women’s triple jump at 1 p.m.
