HOOSIERS COMPETE WELL IN USAT&F CHAMPIONSHIPS
Bloomington, Indiana -- The Hoosiers had only a few track athletes compete at the Indiana USA Track and Field Championships held at the Harry Gladstein Fieldhouse Friday, but those that did compete were impressive.

Krick has already reached 18.99m (62-3 3/4) this season to stand at fifth in the NCAA standings.
