SALT LATE CITY - The University of Utah track and field team had to spread themselves out this weekend. Head Coach Mike Jones wanted to make up for the meet the team was forced to miss last weekend due to the bus accident they were in on their way to the Bob Gibb Invitational in Boise, the team's first scheduled outdoor meet of the season.
Half of the team was in California participating in the Mt. SAC Relays hosting 12,000 athletes from across the country, and the Pamona Pitzer Invitational which hosted about 1,600 athletes, 80 to 90 in each event. The other half of the team was in Logan to compete in the Mark Faldmo Track and Field Open hosted by Utah State.
Competing this weekend was a test for members of the team. Some athletes are still suffering from injuries they received in the accident. Senior All-American Jeff Simonich had to drop out of the men's 5,000 meter invitational at Mt. SAC Saturday night due to muscle cramps in his back.
"He was in fourth place with one mile left and running really well," said Jones. "I thought he was going to break another record but I guess the accident was still affecting him."
Complete and official results from the Mt. SAC Relays and Pamona Pitzer Invitational will follow. Utah returns to action April 23-24 at the Clarence Robinson Invitational hosted by Brigham Young University.
