MARIETTA, Ga. —- The Life University Athletic Department has officially announced the addition of Men’s Cross Country and Men’s Track and Field teams for the 2021-22 academic year.
The Running Eagles currently offer women’s cross country and women’s track and field, and look to build upon the historic success over the combined programs. “It’s exciting any time we can add a sport and provide additional opportunities for young men and women to get a Life University degree,” Director of Athletics Jayme Pendergast stated. “But additionally, it’s extra exciting to bring back a program with such history. With our new track surface and plans to make that upper field area a first-class facility for our women’s cross country/track student-athletes, this is the perfect time to add the men’s team. I’m looking forward to building both of our track programs up to national prominence.”
Interested athletes are encouraged to fill out the Prospective Student Athlete Form, as inquiries will be fielded by the AD in the interim. The search for a coach is expected to begin in the coming months. Any questions can be directed to the Director of Athletics Jayme Pendergast via email – jayme.pendergast@life.edu
