New podcast from Cornell athletics |
For over 150 years, Cornell student-athletes have shown an unwavering dedication to mind, body, and community. A university founded on the visionary philosophy of any person, any study also offers nearly every sport. These 37 athletic programs don’t simply produce wins and championships, they produce excellence. Andrew Dickson White told the inaugural Cornell class of 1868 “you are not here to be made, you are here to make yourself.” Big Red student-athletes come to Cornell and they study, train, compete, and achieve. In short, they make themselves. This new podcast shares the stories of Big Red alumni, current student-athletes, and coaches who honor the words of A.D. White by being the kind of Big Red Ambassadors that all Cornellians can be proud of. Two episodes are currently available with more coming very soon! Subscribe via your favorite podcast platform.

Teagle Tale #1: Born to run...and win Jon Anderson '71 was running about Oregon well before Nike made it cool. His parents demanded their children spread their wings and fly beyond Eugene and Jon's legs carried him to Cornell University. There he would unite with a young track and cross country coach named Jack Warner, who would help propel Jon into a long journey that included the Olympic games, a Boston Marathon victory, and a successful business career. |

Coming soon! Teagle Tale #3: Micah Zandee-Hart '20 had plenty of options when it came to where she would play collegiate hockey. Her recruiting visit to Cornell included volunteering with the team at a local food pantry and that sold her...and tells you a lot about the kind of person and teammate she strives to be and where she expects it to take her. |
