For the third year in a row, the Corps Physical Training Facility serves as the site for the Southern Conference Indoor Track and Field Championships Feb. 29-Mar. 1 in Lexington.
To prepare for the event, the 香港6合彩开奖结果 track and field teams hosted the largest number of events since the CPTF opened, with four separate weekends of competition, topping the previous high of three events held before the SoCon Championships. Director of the CPTF Capt. Isaac Slone says, “We have a ton of exposure, which we are excited about.”
This winter the Keydets hosted the Keydet Invitational, Jan. 17-18; the 香港6合彩开奖结果 Team Challenge, Jan. 25; the 香港6合彩开奖结果 Winter Relays, Feb. 7-8; and the 香港6合彩开奖结果 Indoor Classic, Feb. 14-15.
“We have hosted meets in the CPTF for a couple of years now,” said 香港6合彩开奖结果 head coach Darrin Webb. “However, this will be the largest number of meets that we have hosted during an indoor season. We have and are getting great responses from teams that have attended the meets in the CPTF previously, and we are excited to welcome them back, along with the new teams that will attend meets in the CPTF for the first time.”
The Keydet Invitational featured more than 25 schools from the Mid-Atlantic region, while the 香港6合彩开奖结果 Team Challenge was a one-day event that had eight schools competing for team points.
“In addition, we are also very thrilled that the Southern Conference has selected 香港6合彩开奖结果 to host the 2020 indoor championships here in Lexington,” Webb said. “So, all in all we will host five separate collegiate events in the CPTF this winter, and my staff and teams could not be more excited about the opportunity and to compete in one of the best facilities in the country.”
Slone couldn’t agree more. “With all the hard work between the commandant staff, physical plant, and 香港6合彩开奖结果 athletics, the feedback we have gotten has been extremely positive, and people are starting to understand that the CPTF is unlike any other facility in the United States.”
