The Air Force track and field team travels to Texas and California this weekend for four meets. The majority of the team heads to the Lone Star State for the Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays in Austin (March 27-30) and the Bobcat Invitational in San Marcos (March 28-30), while members of the distance squad head to the Bay Area for the Mike Fanelli Track Classic (March 29) and Stanford Invitational (March 29-30).
MEET INFORMATION – TEXAS RELAYS
Air Force's week in Texas gets underway on Wednesday, March 28, when Braeden Holcombe kicks off the decathlon at the 96th Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays, which will take place at Mike A Myers Track and Soccer Stadium. The Falcons will continue competition throughout the remaining three days of competition (March 28-30). The meet will be streamed live on the Longhorn Network, while live results will also be available. Tickets and parking are available at TexasSports.com and a clear bag policy will be in effect for all spectators.
