ORLANDO, Fla. – The University of Florida track and field program will open its outdoor season this weekend (March 18-19) at the Black & Gold Challenge, hosted by the University of Central Florida.

Florida will send its throwers and a contingent of distance runners to the meet.

The Gators are looking to bounce back from an indoor season that saw them finish outside the top three at both the conference and national meets.
