About this race
Join us for the 5th annual Call My Name 5K on February 21, 2027, that will honor trailblazing Black football trainers, Chappie Johnson and Herman McGee, as well as the first wave of Black student-athletes who competed at Clemson University, including Marion Reeves - football, Wayne Jenkins - track, Craig Mobley and Patsy “Cookie" Blakney - basketball, and more. These trainers and student-athletes helped to make the Tigers champions in many sports.
Call My Name documents and shares the stories of African Americans in Clemson University history. The Call My Name 5K will tour the campus of Clemson while paying tribute to these stories. Learn more about Call My Name HERE.
Call My Name is a research project dedicated to telling the stories of Black men, women, and children throughout Clemson University’s history whose lives and experiences have been largely overlooked in the University’s public history.
