Saturday’s portion of the 2015 Kansas Relays has been canceled because of severe weather expected to hit Lawrence, KU officials announced Thursday.
Thus, all the events will be crammed into a busy day of track and field from 8 a.m. until just before midnight Friday at Rock Chalk Park. The downtown shot put event is still slated for 6 p.m., Friday near the intersection of 8th and Vermont.
The revised schedule is available here.
“Our main goal is to make sure everyone — high school and collegiate athletes — has an opportunity to compete this weekend,” said meet director Milan Donley. “Looking at the Saturday forecast, there is a high probability that many of the athletes would not have been able to participate. We feel that by moving events to Friday, we have a much better chance of achieving that goal.”
