Northwestern’s new track court hosted the Verne Metcalf Family Track Dedication Ceremony on Wednesday.
Construction began in 2023 on the new track for the Rangers men’s and women’s track and field teams and was completed in early 2024.
Both teams, coached by Derrick Young Jr., Jill Lancaster and Sterlin Broomfield, are already enjoying the use of the new court.
After an indoor season, the teams are preparing for their future outdoor season that will begin at the end of March.
