#146: Russell Dinkins-Executive Director Tracksmith Foundation

Russell joins us to talk about the saving of collegiate track and field programs around the country. As he's been featured on many news articles and podcasts, we take a different spin today and focus on what activities can coaches be working on proactively to help strengthen their programs with the hope of staving off future cuts. We hear from him regarding community as it relates to alumni and current team, as well as talk about roster management and Title IX information.

To hear more background from Russell specifically around the Clemson University program drop, check out Dr. Karen Weaver's podcast featuring Russell and Russell Bryant (lawyer). You can find that on your podcast of choice or on APPLE.
