Track & Field Meet Preview: Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener
12/3/2021 5:26:00 PM | Track & Field
BOSTON, Mass. – The indoor season is upon us and the University of Delaware track and field team is set to open the 2021-22 campaign Saturday, Dec. 4. The Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener hosted by Boston University will serve as Delaware's lone indoor meet of the 2021 calendar year.
Following the abbreviated season last spring, interim head coach Ryan Waite will look to his returners to take the reins and the positive momentum from the most recent cross country season to help the team continue their climb up the CAA ladder and produce qualifiers for the NCA Championships heading into the season.
"This week, we're bringing a very small group of distance runners to Boston," Waite stated. "The purpose of this meet is to take advantage of their fitness from the cross country season to get some good marks before they take a short break from training to recover from a long fall. We definitely have the indoor 5K school record in our sights, particularly for Tina Capparell, Susanna Weir, and Hannah Lindgren after their strong cross country seasons. I believe they're fit enough to get it, now we just have to go out there and execute the race plan."
