MINNEAPOLIS -- The University of Minnesota track and field team is headed to the Meyo Invitational at Notre Dame as well as the Midwest Classic, held at the Indiana Farm Bureau Fall Creek Pavilion in Indianapolis. The two indoor meets take place from Jan. 31-Feb. 1 and will consist of a number of Big Ten programs as well as Notre Dame.

LAST TIME OUT
The University of Minnesota picked up a total of 15 event wins during the 2025 Jack Johnson Classic at the University Fieldhouse on January 24-25. The 'U' was led by notable victories from Anthonett Nabwe (Shot Put and Weight Throw) and Kennedy Martinson (Pentathlon). Martinson posted a lifetime best 3,836 points to win the pentathlon and now sits at No. 12 nationally and No. 7 all-time at Minnesota. The point total for Martinson comes in just her third career pentathlon and goes down as the most points by a Gopher in the event since Allison Gerads (4,088 points) in 2021. Nabwe's victories both came on Saturday, with the shot put (17.23m | 56-6 1/2) coming first followed by the weight throw (22.63m | 74-3).
