2014 Yellow Jacket Invitational

Saturday, March 29, 2014

Amidst the sunshine and rain that made up Saturday I headed down to Georgia Tech’s Griffin Track for the 2014 Yellow Jacket Invitational. The meet had collegiate athletes from Georgia Tech, Georgia State University, the University of Georgia, Ohio State, Auburn University, Mercer, and others competing in events throughout the weekend. From the discus and shot put to hurdles, runs and dashes, the athletes did their best to take home their best times and distances.
