WASHINGTON – Georgetown University's track & field team stayed local this weekend with the short trip to College Park, Maryland for the 2023 Kehoe Twilight Meet, held at the Jim Kehoe Track Complex on the campus of the University of Maryland. The Hoyas used it as a last opportunity for recording fast times before the championship portion of the schedule.
