BLACKSBURG – Virginia Tech Track & Field head coach Dave Cianelli has announced the 2023 indoor schedule. The Hokies will compete at 10 meets throughout the regular season, hosting four home meets at Rector Field House.
The Hokies will kick off the new season with two consecutive home weekend meets in Blacksburg, starting with the Virginia Tech Invitational on January 13-14 followed by the Hokie Invitational on January 20-21.
After the first two home meets, the program will travel to Louisville, Ky. to compete at the PNC Lenny Lyles Invitational on January 27-28.
The distance crew will take the weekend off to prepare for the JDL Camel City Invitational on February 3-4 in Winston-Salem, N.C. While the distance crew is in Winston-Salem, Tech will host the Doc Hale VT Meet on February 3-4.
