The men's 8,000m race will begin at 9 a.m. while the women's 6,000m will follow at 9:45 a.m. Nationally-ranked programs competing in the Barrios Invitational include Oklahoma State, with the men ranked No. 24 and the women ranked No. 29, along with Middle Tennessee State men, who are No. 28.
In addition to host Texas A&M, SEC schools participating in the meet include Florida, LSU, Mississippi State, and Vanderbilt while other Big 12 programs include Baylor, Oklahoma, TCU, Texas and Texas Tech.
