TUCSON, Ariz. – Arizona Track & Field is set to host their third home meet of the outdoor season, the Jim Click Shootout and Multis, at Drachman Stadium on Friday and Saturday.
 
This competition is the first of the outdoor season for the Wildcats that will feature team scoring and multi events. The participating teams include Duke, Harvard, Kentucky, Louisville, and Northern Colorado. The meet will feature several highly ranked matchups among event groups. The Jim Click Shootout and Multis is also host to the track & field program's alumni reunion weekend, which includes a letter winners presentation on Saturday at Drachman Stadium.
 
On Friday, field events begin at 10:00 a.m. MST, multi-events begin at 10:30 a.m. MST, and running events begin at 5:00 p.m. MST. The 3000m is the only non-multi-running event that will be held on Friday.

"The Jim Click Shootout is one the premier team competitions in the country," said the Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Fred Harvey. "We will have several top 10 event matchups in the country. For our program, this is the start of our championship season as we now have eight weeks until the Big 12 Championships and 10 weeks until the NCAA First Round Championships."
 
The Wildcats were last in action for the Willie Williams Classic at the end of March. At the meet, the team had eight event wins, 32 top three finishes, and numerous personal bests. The eight event wins came from Zach Extine (men's 110m hurdles), Tapenisa Havea (women's discus), Youssef Koudssi (men's discus), Jathiyah Muhammad (women's pole vault), Mackenna Orie (women's shot put), Antonia Sanchez Nunez (women's 400m hurdles), McKenna Watson (women's 200m), and the men's 4x100m relay team.
 
So far this season, the Wildcats have also posted numerous top 10 all-time marks in school history, led by Jade Brown who broke the school record in the women's 100m in the outdoor season opener. Zach Extine ranks second all-time in the men's 110m hurdles and McKenna Watson ranks second all-time in the women's 200m. The women's 4x100m relay team also ranks third all-time in the event.
