2020 Women’s Track & Field Season Preview

BEVERLY, Mass. — The Endicott women's track and field team will open up its 2020 season on Friday, February 14 at the David Hemery Valentine Invite, hosted by Boston University (BU). Here's a look at the upcoming season.

"We are very excited to debut year three at BU. This is a national-caliber meet and provides a great experience for our student-athletes," said Endicott women's track and field head coach Spencer Lange. "It has been very special to see this team take its shape over the past few years, knowing we are still young and establishing ourselves as we learn and grow. Their attitude has been very positive and unwavering in the chances they have taken. The confidence and leadership they have built together will allow them to maximize every opportunity along the way. We could not be more excited to continue the hard work and elevate each other while enjoying the process this season."
