ONE TEAM, ONE GOAL

“We are thrilled to launchÌýThe Record Setters Club, the official Booster Club for ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ Track & Field and Cross Country. Over the past three years,ÌýI have been amazedÌýby the alumni, local runners/walkers/cyclists and community members who have supported our programs. This support has come in many forms, including companies and individuals committing as donors for our two home events — the Colonel 5k & ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ XC Invitational — joining the momentum on Give N Day, attending ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ Athletics fundraising events and the donation of generous gifts throughout the year, all of which have helped usÌýprovide the best student-athlete experience possible. The goal of The Record Setters Club is to more formally organize this group of supporters and enable us toÌýprovide a unique set of benefitsÌýto keep them better connected to our programs. I’m looking forward to the time we will get to spend with club members each month and how we canÌýconnect them more closely with our teamsÌýto show how their generosity is helping our student-athletes reach our team and individual goals.”
