The new state-of-the-art facility is built on the site of what was for many years the home of Stanford Track and Field, Angell Field. The facility was made possible thanks to lead gifts from Stanford athletic legends, Charles (Chuck) Cobb and Otis Chandler. Cobb Track & Angell Field features a nine-lane, all-weather track named in honor of Chuck Cobb and his family. In addition, all fi eld event competition venues are contained within the track, including multi-direction runways for the pole vault, long and triple jumps, all throwing cages and areas, and an interior water jump to contest the steeplechase. The funds made available by Otis Chandler enabled Stanford Track and Field to name the jumping and throwing venue in the Chandler family name. The area is now known as the Otis Chandler Infi eld. Thanks to the generous donation by the Pitch Johnson family, permanent lighting and a state of the art scoreboard were installed at Cobb Track and Angell Field in 2002. During the summer of 2003, Chuck Cobb provided an additional gift for the renovation of Cobb Track and Angell Field. Included in the renovation are two new long jump runways and landing pits, a new pole vault runway, and new discus and shot put rings. The entire track was also resurfaced. 6 • WWWW.GOSTANFORD.COMWW.GOSTANFORD.COM 22010010 TTRACKRACK AANDND FFIELDIELD MMEDIAEDIA GGUIDEUIDE Numerous records have been set at Cobb Track and Angell Field over the last six years. In 2001, Stacy Dragila set two world records in the women’s pole vault, Meb Kefl ezighi set an American record in the men’s 10,000 meters and Kenya’s Abraham Chebii set a U.S. All-Comers record in the men’s 10,000 meters. In 2002, Deena Drossin ran an American record in the women’s 10,000 meters at Cobb Track and Angell Field and in 2003 Ethiopia’s Werknesh Kidane set a U.S. All-Comers record in the women’s 10,000 meters. In 2008, Drossin’s American record in the 10,000 meters was broken by Shalane Flanagan at Cobb Track and Angell Field. Just last season, Stanford’s own, Chris Derrick, set the American Junior Record in the 5,000 meters with a time of 13:29.98. The list of stadium records at Cobb Track and Angell Field is second to none. In addition, Cobb Track and Angell Field was the site of the 2002 and 2003 U.S. National and Junior National Championships that featured track and fi eld stars Marion Jones, Maurice Greene, Gail Devers, Allen Johnson and Adam Nelson.
