Guest commentary: Others deserve shot at sports
Jan. 28, 2007I was just made aware that OU has cut the men's outdoor/indoor track and field program. I am in absolute shock. I have heard of this happening at other smaller schools, but I would have never guessed it would or could happen at my alma mater. Ever since I graduated, I have tried to come back every year and take in a track meet. Because of the track team, I didn't feel a need to be a part of the crowd or a sorority or any sort of group to make myself feel a part of. Track and field gave me a real sense of self-worth. I was fine being a strong individual. It instilled in me real confidence where there was none, and over the years it has grown. I was lucky to be an integral part of a MAC Championship team and every time I look at my ring, to this day, I feel love for the coaches, the team and OU. Other kids deserve to get a chance at what I had. Track and field is needed at OU ... both the women's and the men's.
