Summer Track Resurfacing Project

Track Repairs

Beginning May 15th (today!) our Track will undergo a 12- 14 week resurfacing project. This project is expected to begin soon, so our stadium will be closed for use until further notice. We are hoping to be open for business by mid-August. The Student Activities Office is working on plans for all of our programs while the stadium is closed. Thank you for your patience!
