12/17 - NEWS FLASH: PAC-12 Indoor Championships
I just found out that the MPSF Indoor meet has been replaced by the new PAC-12 Indoor meet. (meaning, we're not going to the MPSF meet, but now going to the PAC-12 meet) Dates are Feb. 25-26. Had to happen, every PAC school was at the MPSF meet, why not do a PAC Indoor meet.
