Track Continues Indoor Season at Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Invite
January 22, 2026 | Track & Field
The Bruins are set to return to action for their second competition of the 2026 indoor campaign this weekend, heading to Albuquerque, N.M. for the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Invitational.
The two-day meet, which runs Jan. 23-24, will be hosted at the Indoor Track at the Albuquerque Convention Center.
Other participating teams besides the Bruins include Georgia, Grand Canyon, Arizona, San Diego State, SMU, and the host Lobos, among others.
Live results can be viewed HERE. Events are scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. PT on Friday and 9 a.m. PT on Saturday.
The Bruins are off to a strong start, as the team finished atop the team standings for both the men and the women at last weekend's Spokane Sports Showcase in Washington. UCLA collected 11 event wins and 25 top-three finishes at that meet, with particularly impressive outings coming from Otto Laing (second-best 60mH time in school history at 7.81), Celeste Polzonetti (No. 7 time in the 60mH NCAA-wide at 8.14), Michael Pinckney (weight throw champion at 21.61m / 70-10.75), and Sydney Johnson (long jump champion at 6.34m / 20-9.75).
