    RALEIGH, N.C. – Members of the NC State track & field team will make final attempts to reach next weekend’s NCAA Indoor Championships, as they compete in several meets this weekend. The Pack will send competitors to the Alex Wilson Invitational at the University of Notre Dame, Virginia Tech’s Last Chance Qualifier and the Columbia Final Qualifying Meet.

    Among those competing this weekend will be seniors Andie Cozzarelli and Jazueline Daniels, juniors Kenyetta Iyevbele and Elizabeth Shuman, redshirt sophomore Tremanisha Taylor, and redshirt freshman Nicole Chavis.

    This weekend's meets offer Wolfpack athletes a final opportunity to improve their marks and receive bids to the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships, which will be held Mar. 8-9 at the University of Arkansas.
