Colgate

What it actually takes to run at Colgate

NCAA Division I · Patriot · NY

Colgate signed 18 athletes for 2025-26. What follows are their real high-school marks, not a program’s published walk-on line — the honest answer to “would they recruit me?”

Colgate is a 3,131-student private campus in Hamilton, NY and competes in the Patriot. Chelsea France leads a staff of 6 covering 4 event groups.

“Median” is the middle signee’s PR; “range” runs from the fastest to the slowest mark in the class. 1500m/Mile and 3000m are converted to 1600m/3200m for comparison. Pulled from verified meet results.
