If you're looking for an early jump on high school indoor action, that jump is yours to be had at the Air Force Holiday Open on Friday. Joining the collegiate and open competitors from Air Force, Western State, Metro State, Mines, Colorado, and CSU-Pueblo will be a fairly lengthy list of top-tier high school athletes.
The competitive indoor track and field season is already underway for several of Colorado's collegiate programs. A few more programs, plus a lot of open individuals, will be getting their seasons underway at the Cadet Field House of the Air Force Academy on Friday.
