 Today, we celebrate the nearly $1 million in renovations made to the  Robert “Pete” Griffin Track Complex, making it a NCAA   regulation facility which will host many track meets in the very near future.

  Some of the track's enhanced features include:

•            New and thicker rubber track surfaces

•            New pole vault and high jump pits

•            New long and triple jump lanes

•            A new shot put landing area

•            A new discus cage

•            NCAA/state high school regulation striping and line markers

•            NCAA regulation slopes

•            Upgraded restrooms

•            New sand pits

•            New water fountains

  These eco-friendly enhancements were made to better serve the needs of FAMU athletes, aid in the recruitment of top student athletes, and attract regional and national events.   The Design Team: Dave Fronczak and John Hightower of Barnett Fronczak Barlowe Architects and the Construction Managers: Vanessa Anderson and Scott Dull of LLT Building Corp.
