I would not hold breath for track program to improve.
Theer are many unhappy student-athletes on the womens side and recruiting is non-existent in any area. The distance program will only get worse (though that may not be possible). It's unfortunate really because of all the talent in Ohio.

The women did not have a meet this weekend. They will travel to Akron this Friday and Saturday for the Akron Invitational.
