GCU travels to UCSD Triton Invitational for 3rd straight season
The Grand Canyon track and field team will return to San Diego for its third consecutive year at the UC San Diego Triton Invitational.Â

The Lopes will compete against some of the best collegiate and post-collegiate athletes in the country on Friday and Saturday in San Diego.
Â
GCU enters the weekend with the top collegiate mark in four female events and four male events at the meet.
Â
In a loaded throwing field, GCU will see names such as USC, Arizona, Arizona State, Virginia Tech, Kentucky, Michigan and Kansas State.Â
