OKLAHOMA CITY – Each year, Oklahoma City University's athletics teams get involved in the greater Oklahoma City community. Every team gets involved in Community Service Projects.
 
Oklahoma City's track and field and cross country teams not only won two conference championships on the course, but they were champions of the community as well.
 
During a 9/11 remembrance event, the teams delivered coffee and donuts and words of thanks to fire departments in Oklahoma City.
 
In April, OCU athletes ran the entire Bishop McGuinness Middle School Track Meet as volunteers.
 
Even when the teams were preparing for their ultimate competitions, they were active in the communities they were in. They worked with elementary school kids in Florida on a Fun Day event just prior to the indoor track and field championships. In North Carolina, prior to the outdoor championships, they volunteered at a food pantry.
