Pocatello, Idaho – Idaho State University Athletics proudly invites Bengal alumni, fans, and community members to attend the official dedication of Idaho State University's newly redesigned Centennial Cross Country Course this Friday, October 3, in conjunction with the Bengals' home cross country meet.
The day's events will begin with the women's race at 11:00 A.M., followed by the men's race at 12:00 P.M., with the course dedication and remarks taking place after the two races.
The course, located just northeast of William M. and Karin A. Eames Advanced Technical Education and Innovation Complex on Alvin Ricken Drive, has undergone a transformative $1 Million renovation, made possible through the generosity of more than 30 community partners. The result is an iconic venue built to support collegiate competition and community use alike — a lasting investment in the future of both ISU Athletics and the Pocatello running community.
Event highlights include:
-
11:00 A.M. – Women's race
-
12:00 P.M. – Men's race
-
12:35 P.M. – Course dedication and remarks from President, Dr. Robert Wagner and Director of Athletics, Pauline Thiros
-
1:00 P.M. – Opportunity to explore and enjoy the newly redesigned course
We hope you'll join us to celebrate this incredible milestone and cheer on the Bengals as they race on their new course for the very first time.
