The fam and I will be making the journey to Eugene to check out my sister compete this weekend at the west regional track & field meet. I’ll also get to check out a bunch of Hornets competing this weekend as well. The Hornets will be sending 14 women and 6 men who will be competing in a total of 27 events. Anyone else heading north?
