The UIS women's track & field team competed at the Hoosier Horsepower Classic at the Indiana State Fairgrounds, with standout performances in multiple events.

"I am very pleased with the results this weekend!" said head coach Emmons King. "The first meet of the year is when we shake off the rust from winter mileage and get back to running fast. We were able to come away with five program top-10 times and 19 personal bests! I'm excited to keep this momentum heading into next week at Bellarmine!"
