Track Kicks Off Indoors With Potts
BOULDER - The University of Colorado officially kicked off its 2003 indoor track and field season Friday night, hosting the annual Potts Invitational at Balch Fieldhouse. Athletes from CU, the Bear Track Club, Colorado School of Mines, and several unattached competed.
It was a chance for the CU's track and field coaching staff to evaluate the newcomers, as this year the roster was enlarged with several new members. Some of the newcomers the coaches had never seen compete, so Friday was very convenient for serious evaluation of what this season might accomplish.
"There were some very intriguing runners," said CU coach Mark Wetmore. "I look forward to the rest of the season." It seems that the events in which Colorado track and field may seem to excel are Men's Mile, Men's 400 meters, Men's 200 meters, Men's Long Jump, Women's Long Jump, and Women's Triple Jump.
