According to a press release from Texas A&M Athletics, the Aggies’ track and field team will be unable to host any home meets during either the indoor or outdoor seasons in the 2022-23 season due to ongoing construction projects.
Last season, the Aggies hosted six separate meets, including the Ted Nelson Invitational on Jan. 14-15, the Texas Aggie Invitational on Jan. 22, the Charlie Thomas Invitational on Feb. 4-5, the dual meet versus No. 1 Texas on April 2, the 44 Farms Team Invitational on April 8-9 and the Alumni Muster meet on April 30.
The ongoing construction projects are a part of the Centennial Campaign, “a transformational initiative that will impact the academic and athletic development of all Aggie student-athletes,” according to the press release.
A&M is constructing a new track and field stadium on West Campus that is expected to be finished in time for the 2023-24 season, but it will prevent the Aggies from being able to compete at home in the meantime.
The A&M track and field team’s schedule was also released as a part of the press release.
