On your mark, get set, go: Support WWU Sprinters and Hurdlers!

Who We Are:

We are the Viking Track and Field Sprint and Hurdle squad—fast and powerful athletes dedicated to achieving excellence both on and off the field. As a close-knit and dynamic group, we thrive on a culture of family, teamwork, and competitive spirit. This past year, we proved ourselves as key contributors to the success of the WWU Track and Field team, scoring a combined 70 points at the GNAC Indoor Championships and 103 points at the GNAC Outdoor Championships, helping secure first place in both! And, as we welcome some pretty incredible talent to our team this year, we know big things lie ahead for the Viking Sprint/Hurdle Crew!

Our Goal:

We’re raising funds to cover travel expenses for upcoming meets and to invest in new equipment. These resources will enable every sprinter on the team to perform at their best, ensuring they have the support and tools necessary to succeed.

Why We Need Your Support:

Despite our remarkable achievements, our budget remains limited. To continue excelling, we need to provide our sprinters and hurdlers with the experiences and opportunities they deserve. Here’s how your donation can make a difference:

  • Travel Expenses: Attending competitions requires transportation, lodging, and meals—all crucial to making sure every athlete can participate and compete at their best.
  • Equipment: From collapsible hurdles to sleds, a timing system, and recovery boots, better equipment means better preparation, recovery, and performance.

Our total Sprint/Hurdle fundraising goal is $18,000.

Your Impact:

Your donation will go directly to supporting the sprinters and hurdlers on our team. Rather than distributing funds across our entire 136-member roster, your contribution will be streamlined to support your favorite Student-Athlete and their event group, the sprinter/hurdler squad. This means your donation will have a direct and tangible impact on the person you’re supporting!

How Your Contribution Helps—The Win-Win-Win Scenario:

  • WWU Track & Field Wins: With your support, we’ll be able to send all of our deserving sprinters/hurdlers to key qualifying and championship meets allowing to team to continue our success.
  • Your Student-Athlete Wins: By helping them reach their individual fundraising goal of $590, they will not only have the resources they need to compete but will also receive a premium WWU Track & Field Nike gear package!
  • You Win: Every dollar you give directly benefits the runner or event group of your choice. Plus, for gifts over $100, you can opt to receive a special WWU Track & Field token gift as a thank-you for your support!
