We’re fighting to keep CMU’s rich history of Men’s Track & Field alive. We’re a group of alumni and others who believe that the Athletic Department’s decision to cut Men’s Track and Field was the wrong choice for CMU and we want to bring it back.

As former track coaches and also as a former CMU track athlete (Rob Johnson – 1969) we want to help to reinstate the men’s track program at CMU!
