EIU annully plays host to the Panther Open Cross Country meet each September and hosts the Ohio Valley Conference championships on a rotating basis. The course has a mixture of both grass and a stone-chip path. The course features a set up for 8K competition for men and 5K competition for women. (men’s course markings shown above).

In addition to training and racing on the Panther Trail, EIU runners can also take advantage of several other top training areas in the area including -- Fox Ridge State Park (located just six miles south of EIU), The Rail Trail (a flat running/biking trail extending from Charleston to Mattoon) and on various country roads surrounding Charleston.

DR. WILLIAM PERRYEASTERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

William L. Perry began serving Eastern Illinois University as president on July 1, 2007, following 36 years of service to higher education in Texas. Perry, who was born and raised in the Midwest, received his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. In his subsequent career at Texas A&M University, he proceeded through the tenured faculty ranks in mathematics, and then served in increasingly responsible administrative roles involving multiple areas of budget, personnel and planning for the university, academic affairs and facilities. While at Texas A&M, he received recognition for his service in teaching and in administration.

As an undergraduate, Perry attended Park College in Parkville, Missouri, where he majored in mathematics and history, and played basketball. In 1999, he received the Distinguished Alumnus Award from Park. Perry serves on the Charleston Area Chamber of Commerce Board, Coles Together Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors of Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center. Bill and his wife, Linda, reside in Charleston.

TOM MICHAELEASTERN ILLINOIS ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

Tom Michael was formally introduced as the 10th full-time athletic director in Eastern Illinois University history on July 22, 2014 and began his role on August 11. He comes to EIU after serving as the Senior Associate Athletic Director at the University of Illinois "Tom Michael's experience, integrity, and commitment to the academic development of student-athletes are excellent," stated EIU President William Perry. " I am very pleased he is joining the EIU family." "We are excited to begin the next chapter in Eastern Illinois Panther Athletics with Tom Michael as our new athletic director," said Dan Nadler, EIU Vice President for Student Affairs. Over the course of the phone and on-campus interviews you

could see that Tom is someone that will be totally committed to the academic and athletic development of EIU's student-athletes." Michael has worked as the Senior Associate Athletic Director at Illinois since 2012. He is currently overseeing the renovations to the State Farm Center. Michael joined the Illinois athletic department in 1996 as an academic counselor. He has worked for the past 12 years in administration serving as both an associate athletic director and assistant athletic director for student services. In addition to his current role in the State Farm Center renovation Michael oversees Academic Services, Equipment, Event Management, Sports Medicine and Strength and Conditioning for the athletic department. "I am thrilled to be named the Director of Athletics at Eastern Illinois University. It is with great anticipation that I look forward to working with the coaches, staff and student-athletes involved with EIU Panther Athletics," said Michael. I feel the 18 years of employment and four years as a student-athlete at the University of Illinois, have prepared me for this opportunity. I leave Illinois with a tremendous amount of respect for the training and experiences it has provided for me both as a Division I student-athlete and as a Division I athletic administrator." Michael received both his bachelor's degree (1993) and master's degree (1994) from Illinois. He played four years for the Fighting Illini basketball program from 1991-94 helping the team make two trips to the NCAA Tournament. He was a two-time Academic All-Big Ten Selection and holds the Illinois single season record for 3-point field goal percentage. Following his playing days Michael worked in his family's business prior to joining the staff at Illinois in 1996. He and his wife Shana have three children (Nicholas, Nathaniel and Kylie).
