In the final regular season Indoor Track and Field meet, Georgia State will take 24 members to the Chipotle Marshall Invitational in the Cline Athletic Complex in Huntington, W.Va.

This nine-team invitational on Friday and Saturday is the final event before the Panthers compete in the Sun Belt Championships Feb. 22-23 in Birmingham, Ala.

“This weekend is a final tune-up for some of our members and a chance to qualify for our travel team to the conference championships for some other team members,” head coach Chris England said.  “We've never competed at Marshall before and this will give us some new competition as a challenge.”

This meet includes West Virginia from the Big Twelve, Wake Forest from the ACC, Marshall and Florida Atlantic from Conference USA, Appalachian State from the Sun Belt, Bowling Green and Ohio from the MAC, Lipscomb from the Atlantic Sun and UNC Asheville from the Big South.

GSU has been led this winter by school record holders Ravin Gilbert (60m, 200m), LaPorscha Wells (shot put, weight throw) and Katherine Randolph (long jump). All-Sun Belt cross country performer Stephanie Berger has led the distance runners. GSU's depth in the throws has seen Alysiah Whittaker and Tracy Dorcemont perform well.

The team leaves on the seven-hour journey to West Virginia on Thursday afternoon.
