Sixteen athletes, along with their parents and coaches, made the 12-hour road trip to Alabama to complete in the 2013 AAU National Indoor Track and Field Championships held March 15-17.

In addition to participating in the three-day event, the athletes toured the University of Alabama where they learned about the college’s history and its long tradition of excellence in both academic and athletic programs.

UA was certainly impressive, however, it became clear as soon as the i5 athletes arrived at the Birmingham CrossPlex to compete, that they too were impressive. Throughout the meet, the team was clearly focused on creating their own history while building i5 Elite’s tradition of excellence.

In the end, i5 ELITE athletes earned an incredible nine National Titles and 42 medals.
