BOULDER - Paxton Smith is a key piece to Colorado's historic cross country and track program, but limiting his credentials to just that would be selling him short.
Not only is Smith an elite runner and has proved so throughout his time in Boulder, but he brings the same effort he gives on the course and track to both the classroom and in his leadership role in the athletic department as Vice President of the Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC). What he is accomplishing both on and off the track is what makes Smith the definition of a student-athlete.
