SAN ANTONIO — UTSA's men's and women's track & field teams will return to action this weekend at the prestigious Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays in Austin. The four-day meet began on Wednesday at Mike A. Myers Stadium, but the Roadrunners will not begin competition until Thursday evening. The men will compete in nine events, while the women will particpate in a half dozen.
