RINDGE, N.H. (April 19, 2013) -- The Franklin Pierce University track & field program has announced a change to its weekend schedule. Both the men's and women's teams will now travel to Fitchburg State University on Saturday.

Originally scheduled to travel to the MIT Spring Invitational at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Franklin Pierce has withdrawn from the meet in the wake of the ongoing events in the greater Boston area this week. Instead, the Ravens will travel to Fitchburg State for the Eric Loeschner Meet, beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday at Elliot Athletic Complex in Fitchburg, Mass.
