Track and Field set to Host Myrle Hanson Open

Black Hills State University's track and field teams return to the Donald E. Young Center Fieldhouse on Saturday, returning from their long break to compete at the Myrle Hanson Open.

Prior to the holiday break, BHSU hosted the Yellow Jacket Holiday Open on Dec. 2 through Dec. 3, with the Yellow Jacket squads both finishing third overall at the event. The day was highlighted by many shattered personal bests and high placements from the Yellow Jackets.

Some of the top highlights included Mason Sartain's first place finish in the 60m dash final, while the women saw their relay team place first in the 4x400 relay.

Field events this weekend will kick off Saturday morning at 11 a.m., with running events taking place at noon.
