Action gets underway this afternoon for the Golden Gopher men's and women's track teams at the NCAA Midwest Regional in Lincoln, Nebraska. The Gopher women send a record 23 athletes to the meet. The Gopher men have qualified 14 for the event, which runs culminates on Saturday.
Athletes placing in the top five at the Midwest Regional will join qualifiers from the NCAA's three other regional meets at the NCAA Division I Championship scheduled for June 11-14 at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa.
Live results of this weekend's action will be posted HERE.
The University of Nebraska is also featuring streaming video of the meet HERE.

Two golden Gopher stars have made the news recently. The Star-Tribune recently ran THIS feature on Ibrahim Kabia, the Big Ten 100 meter champion. The Gopher sports media folks also published THIS nice story about scholar-athlete Ashley Nord.
As always, the U puts out nice team previews before the big events. Read about about the Gopher men's prospects at Regions HERE, and those of the women HERE.
