Bristol Athletics Welcomes New Women's Track and Field Program, Start Competition in 2018-19

Fall River, MA - - Bristol Community Athletics is pleased to announce the addition of Women's Outdoor Track and Field in 2018-19.  Women's track and field is the third sport to be added in two years, following the addition of men's and women's cross country in the fall of 2017, bringing the total of sports sponsorships to eight

"We are very excited about the addition of women's outdoor track and field" said Derek Viveiros, Director of Athletics.  "The addition of track and field provides another opportunity for prospective Bristol Community College students to compete as intercollegiate student-athletes.  In addition, having both cross country and track and field plays a big a role in recruiting runners to our campus with the ability to compete in both sports."

Bristol is currently in the process of hiring its first coach for women's outdoor track and field.
