Coach's Call
"The Team Challenge has traditionally been a great meet for our program," said head coach Kevin Donner. "It is the last time we will have the entire team together at a meet as we split between Bloomsburg and the Penn Relays next week and then the roster decreases as we approach the Championship meets. We celebrate our seniors as they compete in their last meet at home. It is a scored meet and although we do want to win, we must do what is best for each individual athlete to put them in position for success over the next two weeks."
Last Time Out (Bison Outdoor Classic)
The Bison split the squad between the prestigious Penn Relays and the Maroon and Gold Invitational hosted by Bloomsburg Invitational.Â
