The Runnin' with the Racers Podcast reviews the tremendous success of Tommy Turner, one of the most decorated runners in Murray State history. Arriving at MSU in 1966, Turner was recruited by Coach Bill Fergerson and became a international level talent under Coach Bill Cornell. In 1972, Turner was part of Team USA at the Munich Summer Olympic Games and experienced heartbreak at the disqualification of the USA 4x400m relay team and he was witness to the Munich Massacre that left 11 Israeli athletes dead. In the news of the day with MSU Athletics, we'll have information about Racer Hoopalooza and next week's OVC Football Media Day.
