Alex Wilson Invitational and Navy Select Meets

[Nevada Hoya]

These meets are being held today and tomorrow. The Alex Wilson meet is at Notre Dame and that will give the Hoyas a chance to qualify for the indoor NCAAs with the DMR for both the men and women. Both have good teams, but there are a lot of other teams across the nation will be competing for those 12 spots.
