BLOG 7: Track and Field Teams Hoping For Good Weather

By Sandy Gholston

BIG RAPIDS – As we know, weather is not always reliable in Michigan, but the Ferris State University track and field teams are hoping Mother Nature will be cooperative.

The men’s and women’s track and field teams are scheduled to host the Bulldog Invitational Saturday (April 4) at Top Taggart Field in Big Rapids. The traditional event begins at 11 a.m. with the beginning of the field events followed by the start of the running events at 12 p.m.

Fans are encouraged to come and check out college-level track and field competition outdoors at Top Taggart Field as Ferris student-athletes compete against quality opposition. Ferris is expecting competition from fellow Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference rival schools as well as from smaller colleges around the state, including community colleges.

This weekend’s meet is an opportunity to watch some of our successful student-athletes including the three Bulldogs who qualified for the national indoor championships in Mikinzie Stuart and Tina Muir, from the women’s team, and Matt Jozwiak, of the men’s squad. Stuart and Jozwiak earned all All-American honors while Muir was an All-American during fall cross country season.
