Indiana Track and Field Unveils 2023 Outdoor Schedule
2/2/2023 10:30:00 AM | Track and Field
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana Track and Field head coach Ron Helmer announced the final piece of the 2023 schedule on Thursday (Feb. 2) morning.
The outdoor slate will begin following the conclusion of the indoor season at the NCAA Indoor Championships in the early stages of March.
A near three-month outdoor campaign will take the Hoosiers all over the country and culminate with the NCAA Outdoor Championships on the campus of the University of Texas.
"As we put our schedule together, we considered the wear and tear of travel and several other factors," Helmer said. "We feel like we have mitigated these concerns and are giving our athletes quality opportunities to showcase their talents while having the opportunity to hit qualifying marks for both NCAA and USATF competitions."
The Hoosiers will begin the journey outdoors with a trip to NC State for the Raleigh Relays, one of the best early-season distance meets in the nation.
Following that, IU will head to the Sunshine State for the Pepsi Florida Relays in Gainesville on the campus of the University of Florida.
A busy start to the month of April includes trips to Tennessee and Louisville before the Indiana Invitational, the first home meet of the season.
Select throwers are set to attend the Triton Invitational in San Diego, Calif. From April 7-8.
IU will close the month out with a trip to the prestigious Penn Relays in Philadelphia before finishing out the regular season in Bloomington at the Billy Hayes Invitational.
For the first time since 2018, Bloomington will play host to the Big Ten Outdoor Track and Field Championships from May 12-14.
It will mark the second-straight year hosting a major postseason event after being home to the 2022 NCAA East Prelims.
The final portion of the postseason schedule takes the Hoosiers to Jacksonville, Fla. for the NCAA East Prelims and Austin, Texas for the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
The 2023 season will be the final campaign for head coach Ron Helmer before retiring at the end of the season.
