Troy Track & Field Returns to Action at UAB Vulcan Invite After Strong Indoor Opener

Fresh off a standout performance at the Birmingham Indoor Icebreaker, the Trojans bring 20 athletes back to the Crossplex for a key early-season test

TROY, Ala. | The Troy Trojans are back on the track. After a brief holiday break, Troy Track & Field resumes its indoor season this weekend as the Trojan women travel to Birmingham for the UAB Vulcan Invite, set for Friday, January 9, at the Birmingham Crossplex.

The meet marks Troy’s second appearance of the indoor campaign and a return to a venue where the Trojans were successful earlier this season.

Troy opened its indoor slate at the Birmingham Indoor Icebreaker last month, highlighted by a first-place finish from sophomore Rachel Whyte in the 300 meters. Whyte clocked a winning time of 39.59, setting the tone for a productive early showing by the Trojans.

The opener also featured breakthrough performances across the roster. Junior Kristianna Ware posted a new personal best in the triple jump, finishing fourth at 11.75 meters, while sophomore Haley Wilson secured a fifth-place finish in the 400 meters with a time of 57.96.

Those results provided a strong foundation as Troy looks to build consistency and depth early in the indoor season.
