"I am really excited to get the Pac-12 Track and Field Championships kicked off," said director of track and field Fred Harvey. "We are going to try and get some points on the board for the Cats. We will have three athletes competing. We will have two males; Dominic (Gehr) and Mohammaed (Almarhoun) in the dec. Skylar Sieben, I think, is ready to hit a big PR in the multis. We are at home, we are going to have on the new uniform, I think it is going to be a great showing and we are looking to get some points on the board early."
