Episode 9 - The Founder (Part I)

In this episode, our brave host sits down with Team Collegeville's founder for a lengthy discussion that tells the story of our humble beginnings way back in the pre-Facebook days of the early '00s. In Act I of the show, the Founder tells how the team started as a whim with little to no money and as a way to keep recent graduates of local universities competitive as they transition from collegiate programs to real life. Many details of USATF's sordid history are shared as we see exactly where Team Collegeville placed among a cast of teams that have come, gone, and stayed. Act II brings us further through Team Collegeville's history and tells how one of its most defining members came aboard. The end of the show leaves us with Team Collegeville's dark years, a time where the team not only struggled to be competitive but struggled to remain in existence. Enjoy.
