HOUSTON - The Rice men's and women's track and field programs will send a combined eight athletes to the NCAA West Preliminary next weekend (May 23-25) at Hornet Stadium, hosted by Sacramento State University.
The NCAA West Preliminary meet is one of two regional events, which serve as the first round of the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Athletes gain entry into the competition by having one of the top-48 best marks of the region (East or West) in their respective events. In order to advance to the final round in Austin, Texas an athlete must finish among the top-12 best (per region) in their respective events.
Senior decathlete Charlie Card-Childers has already earned a berth to the NCAA Outdoor Championships with his qualifying score of 7529 points set earlier this season at the Texas Relays.
