CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Austin Peay State University's track and field team wraps up its regular season at Vanderbilt's Music City Challenge, Friday-Saturday, at the Vanderbilt Outdoor Track Facility in Nashville.
The Governors make their fifth trip – and first of the outdoor season – to the Music City in this week's event to compete against 21 teams from eight states.
Kenisha Phillips highlighted the Govs' last trip to Nashville with a second-place place finish in the 400-meter dash. Her 53.66-second time was the second-best 400-meter in the program's indoor history and trailed only her own 53.50 time last season.
Austin Peay claimed 11 top 10 finishes at last week's Indiana Invitational, including nine on the second day of the event.
The Govs begin their stay at the Music City Challenge at noon with the javelin throw. The track events begin at 6 p.m. that afternoon with the 3000-meter run.
