A busy day didn’t slow down the CU track and field team.
The Buffs had a split squad on Saturday, competing in three different meets across the country—the Husky Classic in Seattle, the Air Force Invitational in Colorado and the ISU Classic in Iowa.
In Seattle, sophomore Steve Kasica led the way for CU, finishing second in the men’s 800-meter, and freshman Elizabeth Tremblay finished seventh in the women’s 800-meter.
Colorado found more success at the Air Force Academy with junior Megan Burrell finishing third in the women’s mile, sophomore Brianne Beemer finishing fourth in the women’s 400-meter, and freshman Jason DeWitt finishing fifth in the men’s high jump.
The Buffs then had two ninth place finishes in Ames, Iowa, with junior Joi Windham in the women’s 600-yards dash and junior Matthew McCathran in the men’s 600-yards dash.
Next up for the track and field team is the CSM Twilight Invite in Golden, Colo. on Friday, before heading to the Big 12 Indoor Championships from Feb. 26 to 27.
