Kyle Baudoin, ranked No. 4 in the Sun Belt Conference in the pole vault, will lead a trio of Louisiana athletes in the event after clearing a season-best 16-8 ¾ last week. Teammates Matt Wilson (15-8 ¼) and Chandler Mixon (15-2 ¼) are ranked 10th and 11th overall in the Sun Belt Conference after posting their season-best marks at last month's Louisiana Classics.

The Ragin' Cajuns will look to continue to shine in the javelin as Bartul Basic (232-9) and Hunter Stelly (211-9) enter the meet ranked No. 1-2 in the Sun Belt Conference, with freshman MacKenzie Marze (150-11) ranked third among SBC throwers on the women's side. Basic, who skipped last week's meet at Auburn, enters the meet ranked No. 4 on the NCAA East Outdoor Qualifying list and is No. 10 nationally.

Shaquille Singuineau set a personal-best in the men's shot put (54-1 ¼) to move up to No. 6 among Sun Belt Conference athletes. In the high jump, Sven Glueck enters the meet ranked No. 3 (6-9 ½) in the Sun Belt Conference with Angus Sinclair ranked fifth (6-8 ¾) and Damon Guidry seventh (6-7 ½).

Stanley Limoh will look to build on his season-best time in the men's 1,500-meter run (3:56.07) where he is ranked No. 8 in the SBC. In the men's 3,000-meter steeplechase, Beau Robinson will look to improve on his SBC leading time (9:08.86) that was set at the Louisiana Classics with Jonathan Kimutai looking to build off his season-best time (9:34.02) that is currently ranked No. 8 in the SBC.

Alexa Johnson, ranked sixth in the SBC in the women's pole vault (12-0 ½), will be one of three Ragin' Cajuns competing in the event, joining Kimberly Rushford (11-7 ¾) and Bailey Broussard (11-6 ½).
