Sorry for the lack of posts lately. We’ve been in a holding pattern for the past week or so, eagerly and anxiously awaiting the resumption of outdoor track season practice and competition. Meanwhile, most other spring sports have Marist have been sprung – and are doing quite nicely, thank you very much! Tennis, baseball, softball, water polo and lacrosse have all returned to action. Men’s lacrosse and water polo are undefeated in their truncated schedules so far. Baseball and softball are progressing nicely in endless doubleheader matchups. But hey, let’s be real. If you are reading this, you are wondering about track. We were too, every damn day, this past week/month/year. We were finally cleared to practice on Friday afternoon and we had our first official practices (since March 9, which seems like a decade ago) on Saturday morning. In terms of meets? Talk about a truncated schedule! How about THIS. If all goes well, here are our scheduled competitions:
Friday, April 30: Osprey Twilight meet at Stockton University (Galloway, NJ)
Saturday/Sunday, May 8-9: MAAC Outdoor
Track Championships, Rider University (Lawrenceville, NJ)
Saturday/Sunday, May 15-16: ECAC/IC4A
Championships (for qualifiers), Springfield, MA
And lastly, if we are fortunate enough to get NCAA preliminary round qualifier(s), that would be the last week of May in Jacksonville, FL. That would be neat. But for right now, we’re just hoping to get to a meet. Any meet. Before the season that hasn’t even started comes to its conclusion.

I feel bad for you all, at Muskingum University; we started running at the beginning of the year with indoor and continued into outdoor. However, we didn't receive a cross country season, which kind of sucks. Anyways, hopefully all of you get to compete this track season. Good Luck!
