Help support the STC Elite athletes in 2015!
Attention track & field enthusiasts! The Shocker Track Club Elite Team is about to begin their indoor season and they need your help. Being a post collegiate track & field athlete is a difficult proposition. We have several terrific men and women who are talented and motivated enough to make the upcoming Olympics and World Championships but financial support for these athletes is very hard to come by. Luckily we’ve received some support from First Gear Running Company, Adidas and Asics but it isn’t nearly enough to cover the expenses associated with chasing these athletes’ dreams.
Can you be a supporter of STC Elite? The Shocker Track Club is a non-profit organization and your donations are tax deductible. Check out how to support an athlete here and check out the 2015 STC Elite roster here.
Thank you for your interest in the Shocker Track Club!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Shocker Track Club wishes you and yours a very Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a prosperous and Happy New Year!
