The event will be held in Saluki Stadium before the Salukis kickoff against Youngstown State University on Saturday, October 15, at 2:00 p.m. Saluki Sprint is open to all first year students, and the first 250 first-year students will receive free "Class of 2015" t-shirts.
Join your fellow Salukis in the latest game day tradition by running across the field where the Saluki Football team will dominate Youngstown State. First-year students interested in participating should arrive at the Football Practice Field on the south end of Saluki Stadium NO LATER THAN 1:15pm, and look for the Saluki Sprint check-in stations. Make sure you wear your running shoes, and don't forget your Student ID! Students will be asked to sign-in to participate.
