Evansville Track and Field Recruiting
University of Evansville Director of Cross Country/Track & Field Brooks LeCompte announced the first part of his first official recruiting class as director of the UE running program on Wednesday, as he announced a loaded 19-member class.
Included in the recruiting class on the women's side are nine women, with backgrounds ranging from local stand-outs in cross country to the 2019 Norwegian U20 800-meter champion, the 2023 Austrian U20 Indoor 800-meter champion, and the 2022 Austrian cross country national runner-up. On the men's side, 10 men will join the UE program beginning in the fall of 2023, including the 2022 Spanish U18 National champion in the 800-meters, as well as a top sprinter from Texas, a person who finished fourth in Kentucky in the 400-meters, and a thrower from Illinois who placed sixth in the discus, among others.
"I am extremely humbled by what we as a staff were able to accomplish with this first recruiting class of my tenure," said LeCompte. "Not only do I believe this is the strongest Track & Field recruiting class in UE history, but also arguably one of the top recruiting classes in the MVC.
"The process wasn't easy we, as we put a lot of effort into finding the best athletes that fit into our vision for the new UE T&F team that will not only focus on success in the classroom but also focus on athletic achievement and being competitive within the MVC and nationally. We searched the globe for the best in many countries and found some exceptional talent that will re-write our record books and accomplish finishes as a team in cross country, indoor and outdoor track that we have never seen before here at UE.
