LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The University of Louisville men's and women's indoor track and field teams commence their 2017-18 season this Saturday at the Vanderbilt Opener in Nashville, Tenn.
Louisville will join 16 additional schools at the meet, including host Vanderbilt, Memphis and Western Kentucky. The event opens with the men's high jump at 10 a.m. and continues until the men's 4x400m relay race at 5:35 p.m.
The Cards return two All-Americans from last year's indoor squad, including redshirt senior thrower Emmonnie Henderson, who also earned All-American honors in the outdoor season. Henderson will compete Saturday in the women's weight throw and shot put. Junior Holly Hankenson returns after her All-American campaign with three events, the women's long jump, women's 60m hurdles and women's 60m.
Senior jumper Jerin Allen looks to impress in the indoor season, following a seventh-place finish in the high jump at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Allen will compete in the men's high jump and men's 200m.
