SAN DIEGO -- San Diego State begins the first of two consecutive weekends hosting meets Friday with the two-day 46th annual Aztec Invitational. The meet will consist of distance events Friday at SDSU Sports Deck and the hammer throw at UC San Diego, and track races and field events Saturday at SDSU Sports Deck.

This year’s meet will include host San Diego State, future Pac-12 foe Washington State, Brigham Young, Army West Point, San Diego and UC San Diego, along with two division II schools (Cal State San Marcos and Point Loma Nazarene) and two DIII programs (Claremont-Mudd-Scripps and Middlebury), along with numerous unattached, professional and elite Paralympians.

Friday and Saturday’s invitational events will be streamed live on RunnerSpace+ platform and can be viewed for a nominal fee. Live results will also be available at GoAztecs.com.

The Aztecs have 27 student-athletes set to compete across 44 entries between Friday and Saturday’s events. The list is made up of 19 sprints, 10 mid-distance, four distance, four pole vaulters, two throwers, one hurdler and one jumper, along with three relays.

This will be the first of two home meets for SDSU with the Shelia Burrell Aztec Heptathlon/Decathlon set to take place, March 27-28.

This is San Diego State’s second outdoor meet of the year after sending a small contingent of distance athletes to the Ben Brown Invitational, March 7 in Fullerton, California.

Last weekend, Jenna Fee Feyerabend and Shaquena Foote represented the Aztecs at the NCAA Indoor Championships in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Feyerabend finished 10th in the pentathlon with 4,202 points, a season-best total and the second-best mark of her career. Feyerabend now has the top-2 pentathlon finishes at the NCAA Indoor Championships for SDSU after taking ninth in 2023 with 4,263 points. Foote, meanwhile, came in fourth in her heat in the prelims of the 400 meters and 14th overall in a time of 52.58 seconds. Foote was the first Aztec qualifier in the event since SDSU hall-of-famer Tonette Dyer came in 18th in 2003 in 56.02. Both athletes were named second-team All-America selections, the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) announced on Monday.  

Kiera Bennett gets things underway for SDSU on Friday on the campus of UCSD with the hammer throw, beginning at 2 p.m. PT. The rest of Friday will be contested at San Diego State with Samantha Wood competing in the steeplechase at 5:30 p.m. PT and ending with three Aztecs in the 5K at 7:35 p.m. PT. On Saturday, the day begins for SDSU at 11:30 a.m. PT with the 4x100-meter relay and concludes with the 4x400 at 6:05 p.m. PT.
