Track and Field Opens Outdoor at USF Alumni Invite

MUNCIE, Ind. -- The Cardinals will open their outdoor season on Friday, March 15 in Tampa, Florida at the USF Alumni Invite. Events are scheduled to begin Friday morning at 10 a.m. and continue through Saturday.

The team is coming off a highly successful indoor season. They secured many top finishes and achieved many new personal and season bests. Through the post-season their success continued as they finished third at the indoor MAC Championships. Two Cardinals, Jenna Oriani and Jenelle Rogers, earned individual MAC Champion titles.

Following the MAC Championship meet, Jenelle Rogers qualified to represent the Cardinals at the NCAA Indoor Track Championships. Rogers was a stellar competitor, bringing home the silver medal in the pentathlon with a new Ball State record of 4,430 points.
