Bears have nine ranked in the NCAA top 25 individually
WACO, Texas – Following back-to-back home meets, Baylor track & field is back on the road for the LSU Alumni Gold Friday and Saturday in Baton Rouge, La.
Â
"It's another meet leading up to the Big 12 meet," head coach Todd Harbour said. "We're just trying to continue to improve and do what we need to do to become a better overall team on both the men's and women's sides. We want to try to stay healthy again. Hopefully we get a little better weather than we had last week and have a chance to really move up in the rankings. We're primed and ready. We just need some good weather."
Â
Through five outdoor meets, Baylor is outside of the USTFCCCA top-25 on the men's and women's sides, but have several individuals in the hunt to qualify for the NCAA West Regional Championships.
Â
We're taking a good group," Harbour said. "Most of our distance squad will stay here and train but we've got a pretty good group going – sprint wise, jumps, hurdles, throws – every else is going pretty much."
Â
Top-25 ranked athletes on the women's team include Aaliyah Miller (No. 3 – 800m), Tuesdi Tidwell (No. 4 – pole vault), Kavia Francis (No. 23 – 200m), the 4x100m relay (No. 19) and the 4x400m relay (No. 16).
Â
On the men's side, Kamden Jackson (No. 19 – 100m), Howard Fields III (No. 15 – 400m), the 4x100m relay (No. 9) and the 4x400m relay (No. 4) are all ranked in the top 25.
