The women's race will be up first on Friday morning at 8:35 a.m. Pacific time, followed by the men's race one hour later, at 9:35 a.m. Pacific.
Â
Big Ten Network will televise both championship races live.

The Huskies are ranked 29th nationally in both the men's and women's polls heading into the meet, and that ranking is fifth-highest among Big Ten Conference squads on both sides as well.

The highest ranked women's team is Oregon at No. 15, followed by No. 23 Northwestern, No. 25 Minnesota, No. 26 Penn State, and the Huskies at No. 29.
