Named in honor of Coach Sweet’s top quarter miler Reggie “Racetrack” the Atkins, Reggie F. Atkins Outdoor Track & Field facility was made possible through generosity of private donations. The largest coming from the late Reggie Atkins estate, the former student-athlete of the 1920’s contributed $750,000 to UNH which enabled this $2.3 million project to become a reality. The track includes a 400-meter synthetic surface track with eight 42-inch wide lanes, as well as multi direction runways for pole vault, long jump and triple jump. The outdoor facility also comes equipped with a 3,000 meter steeplechase pit, space for throwing events, a timing system, public address system and telecommunications wiring. The Reggie Atkins outdoor track is open daily to students, staff, faculty and the community between 6-8 a.m. and 12-1 p.m., as long as not being used by a UNH varsity sports team.
