Athletes to watch

Shaquille Walker posted the nation’s fastest 800-meter time (1:45.78) two weeks ago at the Sun Angel Classic in Tempe, Arizona. Walker is likely to run an open 400 meters and compete with the 4x400 team at the Robison Invitational.

Two-sport star Lexi Eaton is set to high jump this weekend. Eaton set the team’s best marks in the high jump in 2012 and 2014. The Robison Invitational will be her first meet of the season.
