Friday's competition in Flagstaff will serve as the first of seven indoor meets this spring, concluding with the NCAA Indoor Championships in Boston from March 8-9. Four of those meets will take place in February, which will also feature the Charlie Thomas Invitational (Feb. 2-3), the USATF Championships (Feb. 17) and the Ken Shannon Invitational (Feb. 23-24).
Once the indoor season concludes in Boston, the focus will shift to the outdoor campaign, beginning with the Aztec Invitational at San Diego State (March 21-23). A total of nine outdoor competitions will be held from March to June, taking the Sun Devils to West Philly, Pennsylvania, for the Penn Relays (April 25-27), the Pac-12 Championships in Boulder, Colorado, (May 10-12) and finishing at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon (June 5-8).
The final official competition of the season, should the Sun Devils qualify, is the USATF Olympic Trials, held in Eugene from June 21-30.
Momentum is on the Sun Devils' side entering Dion Miller's fifth season as the Director of Track & Field & Cross Country after a historic and productive 2022-23 campaign.
Relive the 2022-23 season with the notes, numbers and honors from Sun Devil Track & Field
The Sun Devils are coming off one of the best seasons in program history, as the outdoor season produced 10 All-Americans, a pair of Pac-12 titles, four program records, 19 program record updates and a near NCAA 4x400 record. The men's 4x100 and 4x400 relay squads both ran program records at the NCAA Championships, with the latter earning the No. 3 time in NCAA history. Christina Warren broke the program triple jump record in back-to-back meets and Adriana Tatum and Jeremiah Curry both shattered ASU's men's and women's 200m records. The Sun Devils celebrated the men's 4x400 relay and high jumper Grace Campbell earning gold medals at the Pac-12 Championships, with seven total medals being earned at the conference championships.
In the indoor season, the Sun Devils had a couple of first-team All-Americans after the NCAA Indoor Championships in Turner Washington, who claimed his sixth NCAA medal with his third-place (bronze) finish in the shot put, while the men's 4x400 relay group of Jalen Drayden, Jeremiah Curry, Dubem Nwachukwu and Justin Robinson finished fourth to earn first-team honors. Robinson took ninth in the 400m, too, earning second-team All-America honors.
