They say the next opportunity is always right around the corner, and for the BG track team that phrase certainly rings true this week.

Attempting to put the disappointment of last weekend’s CMU Quadrangular behind them, the Falcons have gone about this week with renewed focus and replenished energy as they prepare for the All-Ohio Championships and the Findlay Open.

The events will take place in Findlay and will be spread over today and tomorrow.

“This is a terrific opportunity for our team,” coach Cami Wells said. “The focus of our indoor season has always been on the All-Ohio this week and the [Mid-American Conference] Championship next week.”

The first competition for the Falcons will be the distance medley relay, which begins this evening at 6:15 p.m. The rest of the squad will begin competition tomorrow morning at 11:10 a.m.

After being bit hard by the flu bug in recent weeks BG looks to be, for the most part, fully recovered and ready to go.

“We don’t anticipate anybody sitting out,” Wells said. “It’s exciting to have the full squad back and ready to go.”

The women will be competing against MAC foes Toledo and Ohio as well as a slew of other teams from across the Buckeye State.

“We are looking forward to competing against the teams in our conference as well as some of the other teams from across the state that we rarely see,” Wells said. “Hopefully we come out and put forth our best effort of the season.”
