Murray State hall of famer, Pat Spurgin, was already an international rifle competitor long before she arrived at Murray State to be a teammate with her Brother, Kerry, in the fall of 1985. She became an eight-time First Team All-America for the Racers from 1984-87 and helped MSU to a pair of national championships while winning two of her own individually. Spurgin was the 1984 OVC Female Athlete of the Year and made the USA Olympic team where she won a gold medal at the 1985 Los Angeles games. Since that time, she has lived and worked in Alaska for 32 years. On episode 88 of the Runnin' with the Racers Podcast, Spurgin tells how those days at MSU set her on a path of success.
