THIS WEEK IN HUSKY TRACK & FIELD
Brutus Hamilton Invitational
Saturday, Apr. 6
Berkeley, Calif.
SEATTLE – Washington Track & Field goes right back to the Bay Area for the second week in a row with a slightly smaller squad to take part in Cal’s Brutus Hamilton Invitational in Berkeley. It will be a lengthy day of competition this Saturday, Apr. 6, from 8:30 a.m. until about 3:30 p.m. for a UW group of sprinters, throwers, jumpers and vaulters, with the distance runners taking the week to train.
Last week the Huskies opened with a strong showing at the Stanford Invitational and based on those marks, the UW men’s team went from unranked to No. 13 nationally, and the women’s team opened up at No. 28 nationally. Washington won three of the four Pac-12 Athlete of the Week awards this week, with Evan Jenkins winning Men’s Track, Trevontay Smith winning Men’s Field, and Hana Moll winning women’s field. Only Smith is scheduled to compete again this weekend in Berkeley.
The men’s hammer throw is first on Saturday morning staring at 8:30 a.m. The first track event will start at 10 a.m. There will be no live stream of Saturday’s meet.
