QUOTING HEAD COACH Kyle Kepler: "The Drake Relays are known as America's Athletic Classic and one of the premier track meets in the country. The Robison Invitational is the most competitive meet BYYU hosts all year. This weekend is critical for our athletes. We started to build some momentum in almost every event. Both of the meets this weekend will be the most competitive meets we've been in all year so it is important to walk away with tangible results. By doing this our athletes will have the confidence they need to have as we enter the championship portion of our schedule."
