Kingsville - After another phenomenal regular season, the Texas A&M - Kingsville women's and men's track and field teams are beginning their outdoor postseasons in Portales, NM for the Lone Star Conference Championships.
The Javelinas have climbed the national rankings throughout the season, bringing, on the men's side, a No.6 team ranking in all of D2 and, on the women's side, a No.25 ranking. Not only that, but the men's team currently boasts 13 different athletes and two different relays that hold top-40 times/scores in the nation this season, including a pair of throwers,
David Guzman and Ronald Grueso Moswuera, who have top-15 throws in two different events. Additionally, the women's team has nine different athletes and a relay that sit top 40 on the national leaderboard, including
Cynai Christopher, who has top-25 times in two different events, and
Afaf Benhadja, who has top-35 times/scores in three events.
The teams will carry momentum from a record-setting performance at the 2025 Texas Invitational into this weekend's three-day meet. TAMUK will bring 50 total athletes to the meet, 28 men and 22 women, who will compete over the course of Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, with the majority of the running event finals set for late afternoon on Saturday.
