MOSCOW, Idaho – Matt and Jill McCluskey have donated $1 million to the University of Idaho track and field program in honor of their daughter Lauren, a former University of Utah track and field student-athlete who was murdered in 2018 by a man she briefly dated.
The money will be used to resurface the Kibbie Dome indoor track, which will be named in her honor.
"We hope that Lauren's light will shine through the current and future athletes who train and compete on what was her home track," The McCluskey family said. "With this resurfaced track, Lauren will always have a presence in the Kibbie Dome.
