    “EVERYTHING MATTERS”

    This was the theme and attitude posted up on the University of Texas Football Facility front door …as I walked into my first CLYDE LITTLEFIELD TEXAS RELAYS extravanganza this past weekend with Coach Mike Potter,Coach Curtis Ackacki, Greg Thompson and pole vaulter Kaeli Thompson. This 92nd Running of the Texas Relays was a treat for the ultimate Track & Field Nuts attending. Everything was first class…. and the the Texas Exes and constituents from around the campus teamed up to establish the …..”Texas Fans Make Us Proud” initiative to promote good sportsmanship at all athletic events for the University of Texas. The University of Texas is a leader of college sportsmanship and they make UT sporting events a model for safety, civility and team pride. THANK YOU UT for showing us the model…… “EVERYTHING MATTERS”.
