Major: Geography

We asked Alex “Why did you choose Colgate XC/TF?” Check out his response!

“The Colgate Track Program gives us the unique opportunity of training and competing at the Division 1 level without missing out on a true college experience. Colgate is one of the only schools in the country that allows student-athletes to simultaneously strive for excellence in academics and athletics, without sacrificing one for the other. The chance to attend a terrific university while living in a beautiful area and continuing my athletic career was too good to pass up!” #colgatexctf #colgate #colgateuniversity #colgateathletics #trackandfield #javelin #throwernation #patriotleague #ncaatf #ncaadivision1 #meetthisraider
