The UK women’s team is up to a season-high No. 2 in this week’s edition of the USTFCCCA rankings.

Kentucky track and field Wildcats claimed 17 event victories – and a further three more events where a Wildcat alumnus was top collegian – last Saturday at the Kentucky Open, which was UK’s only outdoor home meet of 2019.
