the MVC indoor track meet is at UNI Saturday and Sunday, myself and some other 80s alums will be there reporting from the meet. We'll post updates as quickly as we're able.

As you all recall, last year we won both the men's and women's indoor titles. We'll try again this year but it will be tough, there are some VERY good teams and individuals at all the MVC schools this season.

at this point the MVC is rated the 7th best women's conference in the country for indoor track and field. I don't recall it being ranked this high before.

This week the ISU men are ranked 92nd nationally, while the women are ranked 49th
