A solid group of Wolfpack sprinters and field athletes will compete at the Tiger Paw Invitational, marking the second time that NC State has competed at Clemson this season. While many of the student-athletes have already set qualifying marks for the ACC Indoor Championships in their respective events, the meet will serve as an opportunity to continue adding to the list and to improve upon national qualifying marks.

The meet marks the second time that NC State has traveled to compete at Clemson this season. Both Gabriele Cunningham and Cravont Charleston clocked their season-best 60m dash times at the Clemson Bob Pollcok Invitational in January, both marks that are top-six conference times.
