KENNESAW STATE AT North Florida TwilightAPRIL 10th |
Jacksonville, Fla. | HODGES STADIUM Meet Schedule | Live Results
Both teams will be heading to the North Florida Twilight as they conclude spring break on Friday, April 10.Hodges Stadium Hodges has been host to the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field East Preliminary in 2012 and 2014 and will also host the event in 2015 and 2016.
It was renamed Hodges Stadium after a generous gift of $2 million from George and Kernan Hodges that was announced in October 2006. After the installation of seating in the existing stands, a completed press box and field/track lighting during 2007, the final phase of construction was completed in August 2008 with the installation of the 9 lane Olympic quality track with Mondotrack SX surface. The track has full markings for all NCAA and IAAF events, including the ability to run directional events in either direction on either straight. All field event areas are within the stadium, including 4 horizontal jump pits, 8 pole vault locations, and multiple areas for each throwing event. To round out the package, the facility includes a full 400m, 3 lane warm-up track and brand new IAAF certified equipment provided by UCS.

COACHES TAKE ON THE WEEKENDDirector of Track and Field and Cross Country Andy EggerthOn the weekend:"We have had a pretty good week of training. In many instances, we will compete in our primary events for the first time this season; after using Georgia Tech as a training competition and the Florida Relays mainly for relay events. But our combined event athletes will focus on some of our weaker events in preparation for the combined events next weekend. "
