    POST COLLEGIATE SUCCESS Here at CU we are no more proud of the successes of present Buffs than we are of those who went on to the next level. Frankly, we don’t believe there is another college program in the country that can boast as many national level professionals. During the tenure of Coach Wetmore, numerous graduates of the Buff distance program have gone on to professional contracts. Seven are currently active. Ten have been Olympians and two have won Olympic Bronze Medals. Twenty-eight have made World Championship Track or Cross Country teams. Eighteen made World teams while still running for CU.
