Building on a five-year relationship with the
collegiate Pac-10 Conference,
Toyo is sponsoring television coverage
of the 2011 Pac-10 Track & Field
Championships.
Aired on Fox Sports Net (FSN), the broadcast package,
entitled the “Pac-10 Track & Field Championships
presented by Toyo Tires,” continues this weekend
from Drachman Stadium in Tucson, Ariz.
Young men and women from Pac-10 Conference schools
compete in several events, including discus, hammer,
pole vault, shot put, javelin, hurdles, high jump,
long jump, steeplechase, relays and running
competitions ranging from sprints to the 10,000 meter
dash.
The decathlon and heptathlon events took place during
the May 6-7 opening weekend.
Toyo also sponsors Pac-10 basketball
and football along with the Pac-10 Scholar-Athlete of
the Year awards, which are presented throughout the
entire academic season to recognize participants in
each of the Pac-10’s 22-sports who excel as
students.
“The dedicated student-athletes of college sports
exemplify the Toyo Tires mantra,” says Marty Furman,
the tire maker’s COO: “Driven to Perform.”
