GREENVILLE, N.C. – The East Carolina track & field team will compete at the American Athletic Conference Indoor Championships on Thursday and Friday in Birmingham, Ala.

"Both teams are very excited about competing at a very high level at this weekend's AAC Indoor Championships in Birmingham," said Director of Track & Field Curt Kraft. "Both teams have worked extremely hard to prepare themselves to put themselves in a great position to achieve their goals."

The Pirates enter postseason competition having added 16 marks to the program top-lists across the team's six regular season meets.

"As I have mentioned before, this conference is a very competitive league," continued Kraft. "It's very difficult to score points in any event in this league. This is the meet that everyone wants to have their peak performances. We have to go in and compete our hearts out, and everything else will take care of itself. I know our kids are excited to represent the Purple and Gold."

One of the key competitors to look out for will as always be sprinter Royal Burris. Burris will be looking to defend his AAC 200m title and improve upon his All-Conference finish in the 60m in the meet a year ago.
