WACO, Texas - In its final meets of the indoor regular season, the majority of Baylor's track and field team will be in action at the Tyson Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark., while five other women's athletes will travel to the Iowa State Classic in Ames, Iowa, Friday and Saturday.

"It is a big weekend for us, knowing that we still have some work to do to have a better national team," head coach Todd Harbour said. "We are trying to do a little more fine-tuning, before we get to the Big 12 meet in two weeks. With the last-chance meets going away, this weekend becomes bigger than it has been, because you have to try to get some things done."

Baylor is scheduled to have 34 athletes in action, including 15 women and 19 men at the Tyson Invitational. The Bears will be traveling to the Randal Tyson Track Center for the first of two trips this season as the NCAA Indoor Championships will be hosted by Arkansas on March 13-14.

Currently, Baylor's women's team is ranked 27th, while its men's squad is listed as the 16th-ranked team by the USTFCCA.

Action is slated to get underway at 1 p.m. on Friday with field and running events. On Saturday, field and running events begin at noon.

The five other Baylor women's runners, Rachel Johnson, Mariah Kelly, Maggie Montoya, Raena Rhone and Olicia Williams, will be competing at the Iowa State Classic at the Lied Recreation Center. Individually on Saturday, Johnson and Montoya will run the 3,000-meter event, while Kelly will take part in the mile race. Williams will be running the 800 meters and Rhone will race in the 400 meters. Four of those five athletes will run the distance medley relay race on Friday evening. Each will be trying to secure a time that will qualify for the NCAA Indoor Championships on the same track that will host the Big 12 Indoor Championships in two weeks.

Those five runners hold seven of the Baylor women's nine top-20 performances nationally. Rhone delivered the country's ninth-best time in the 400 meters as she ran a 52.80 in College Station last week. Kelly posted a school-record time of 4:39.90 in the mile at the Rod McCravy meet to currently have the nation's 13th-fastest mark. She also owns the nation's 17th-best mark in the 800-meter race with a time of 2:06.31. Williams turned in a PR mark of 2:06.11 to post the country's 14th-fastest in the 800-meters. Montoya tallied the 14th-fastest mile time (4:40.37) last weekend. Johnson holds the country's fourth-fastest 5,000-meter time of 15:40.45. The DMR relay team is currently ranked seventh in the country with Kelly, Rhone, Williams and Montoya teamed together for a time of 11:09.35.

Following the first three meets of the season, the Bears have four event marks currently in the country's top 20. Sprinter Trayvon Bromell has two of those marks as he is tied for the national lead with a time of 6.54 in the 60-meter dash. The Bowerman Award watch list member also owns the seventh-fastest time in the 200 meters at 20.80. In the 400 meters, sophomore George Caddick turned in a time of 46.54 at the Texas A&M Aggie Invitational to be 11th nationally. BU's other top-20 mark is its relay squads. The 4x400-meter crew of Alex Reece, Brandon Moore, Richard Gary and Caddick are ranked 20th with a time of 3:10.71.

Two of BU's women's competitors in Arkansas have top-20 marks nationally as well. In the field events, Annie Rhodes' school-record vault of 13-11.25 [4.25m] has her ranked No. 15 nationally. Meanwhile in the triple jump, Brianna Richardson is sitting 13th in the country with a leap of 42-2.25 [12.86m].

During the 2014 Tyson Invitational, Baylor's Felix Obi set a school record in the triple jump for a second-straight year.

Last time out, Baylor's women placed third and the men were fourth at the Texas A&M Aggie Invitational. BU had event winners on the women's side in the mile, the 800 meters, the pole vault and the triple jump, while the men's lone victor was Bryce Grace in the 60-hurdles.

Following the meets in Fayetteville and Ames, Baylor will take next week off before traveling to the Big 12 Indoor Championships, Feb. 22-28, in Ames, Iowa.
