LAFAYETTE – The Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns track and field team remains in state for the first of two consecutive meets when it heads west to Lake Charles on Friday to compete at the McNeese Indoor Invite at the McNeese Rec Complex.
Â
Action begins at 11 a.m., with field events before running events start at 4:30 p.m. Live results, courtesy of McNeese, will be available at RaginCajuns.com. Louisiana will join host McNeese along with Grambling, Huston-Tillotson, LeTourneau, Loyola-New Orleans, Southeastern Louisiana, Southern, Texas A&M-Kingsville and ULM.
Â
Louisiana, which will remain in-state when it competes at the LSU Bayou Bengal on Feb. 1, earned three first-place finishes at the Samford Invitational as Kyle Baudoin (men's pole vault), Reagann Leleux (women's pole vault) and Frankie Griffin (women's high jump) each claimed their respective events.
