HOUSTON – The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) Vaqueros track & field program will be back in action Thursday as it takes on the Kirk Baptiste Spring Break Invitational in Houston to open the outdoor season. 
 
The meet begins with field events at 12 p.m. with running events to follow at 3:30 p.m. at the Carl Lewis International Complex. Participating teams include the hosting Houston Cougars, Coffeyville, Fort Scott, Harvard, Jacksonville College, Lamar, Rice and Sam Houston State. 
 
UTRGV will see some newcomers debut at this meet while others who had success during the indoor season will look to keep things rolling. With events opening up and getting added to the program as the season shifts outdoors, the student-athletes will have more chances to show their potential.
