Manteo Mitchell blog

I'm Manteo Mitchell, a senior from Western Carolina Univeristy! I'm a sprinter who also runs on the 4x1 & 4x4 relays! My current PR's are 20.83 (200), 46.23 (400). I hope to improve on my times this year as it is my last year of running (collegiately)! I have ambitions of making a career out of track and field! After obtaining my degree in Sport Management, I would also like to hold a job position in Athletic Administration in a College or University!!! Anyways, I look forward to letting you into my world as I finish out my last year here at THE Western Carolina University!

Catamount Track and Field Update

What are they doing out there?

A lot of people and students around campus have been asking why they see us out at the track regardless of the weather conditions: POURING rain, HOT & humid, FREEZING cold... Makes no difference!! The "track-cats" are always down and willing to do whatever it takes to get that Team Championship in February and again in April!! Does that answer your question?

In recent news, our teams are still in preseason! We've been guided in a new direction in the weight-room by applying more explosive type drills in the! (Shout out to Coach Brian Tatum). Workouts on the track are beginning to pick as we're approaching the first Indoor meet of the season, which is the ASU Opener on December 5th! With a little more than a month remaining, we are thrilled and we're anticipating our first meet at our rival school, so be on the lookout for us.
