Men's T & F Travels To Atlanta For Yellow Jacket Invitational
Thursday, March 31, 2005 | Men's Track and Field
The University of Florida men's track & field team will return to action a week ahead of schedule following the cancellation of several events at the 2005 Coca-Cola Florida Relays as members of the men's team will take part in the Yellow Jacket Invitational on Saturday at George C. Griffin Track.
The men will take all but their distance runners to the Yellow Jacket Invitational at Georgia Tech as the Gators will face stiff competition that includes several teams that finished among the top 20 at the NCAA Indoor Championships, including Auburn, Florida State, Michigan, South Carolina and Tennessee. Events are set to begin at 8 a.m.
The men's squad will next compete as a whole at the prestigious Texas Relays April 7-9 in Austin.
