Cross Country and Track & Field

📣A message from the Cross Country and Track & Field Coaches ~

"Giving Day + March Mania has been such an exciting time for our program and the department. It is a great way for the alumni to rally around each program and the support that our cross country and track & field alumni have shown has been greatly appreciated. Donor support has elevated the program’s profile, and enhanced recruiting efforts, allowing us to field more competitive teams in the Patriot League. As a result, we’ve advanced athletes to the 1st round of the NCAA National Championships, an achievement made possible solely because of the support of our passionate and caring alumni community. We thank you all for everything you do for our program!"

💰Your gift supports -

The University provided operating budget allows us to field a team and function as a varsity sport within the Patriot League. However, in order to consistently compete for championships, we rely on incremental financial support from alumni and friends. Donations to Lehigh Cross Country and Track & Field go directly to supporting our operating budget, and are used to augment recruiting, travel, out-of-season scheduling, and equipment & gear costs that exceed the university budget allotment. Additionally, donations also help us meet our own unique annual fundraising priorities that, when provided, enhance our chances of competitive success and deliver an even more memorable student-athlete experience.
