BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The Lipscomb track and field squad is set to kick off their 2021 campaign this weekend with a trip to Birmingham, Alabama for the Stanford Invitational.
Four Lady Bisons will begin the meet on Thursday with heats for the heptathlon before the rest of the roster takes on a full slate of events on Friday.
Among the competition in Birmingham will be Samford, Western Kentucky, Furman, Chattanooga, Memphis, Southern Miss and Kennesaw State.
Lipscomb hasn't hit the track in 11 months, since the 2020 ASUN Indoor Championships last February. The Bisons entire 2020 outdoor season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Purple and Gold return a number of notable student-athletes, including 11 All-Conference performers from last season: Courtney Brenner (the 2020 ASUN Championships MVP), Lauren Flynt, Grace Oetting, Maddie Moody, Pari Manoogian, Ayse Allison, Jonathan Imes, Jonathan Schwind, Brent Leber, Demontae Wilson, and Grant Mason.
