DENTON, Texas - Mean Green track & field returns home to host the North Texas Spring Classic Saturday at Fouts Field.

Junior Steven White and Senior Sara Dietz enter the meet as the men's and women's Sun Belt Track Athletes of the Week after outstanding showings at the Texas Relays.

She currently sits atop the SBC in the 800 and 1,500 meter runs, the only two events she has participated in this outdoor season.

Saturday's meet will mark the only home meet of the season for the Mean Green and its fourth consecutive week competing in the state of Texas.
