WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – The Anderson University women's track and field team opened the 2022-23 indoor season at the Visit Winston-Salem College Kick-Off on Saturday (Dec. 3).

"We had a great showing today with multiple indoor personal bests and a school record," said assistant coach Andrew Mudd. "Our athletes worked very hard this fall and it showed in their performances. As a team we are far ahead of where we were at this time last year. It will be exciting to see where we can go from here."
