Dear UAlbany Track and Field/Cross Country Alumni:

We are excited to hosting this event in addition to bringing our great alumni and former coaches back to Albany. We want to provide you with a chance to “come home” and connect with your past, meet the present team, and join us in our pursuit for future success. We have such amazing alumni and we want you all to continue to be a part of the Proud UAlbany program that continues today.

Our Alumni weekend will start off with the 29th Annual Hall of Fame Dinner and Induction Ceremony on Friday September 28th at 6pm. On Saturday morning, you will get a chance to meet the coaching staff, past and present student-athletes. At 10:00am, we will start our first annual Alumni 5K run which begins at Collins Circle in addition you will able to observe the 46th Annual Great Dane Cross Country Invitational. From there, you can join us while we cheer on the UAlbany Great Danes Football team as we battle the Monmouth Hawks. 

Following Saturday’s activities, I hope everyone joins us on Saturday evening for a social hour and dinner at Hotel Albany (formerly the Crown Plaza). We will formerly celebrate our 50th Anniversary as well as recognize and hear some words of inspirations from our Wall of Fame Inductees.
