STC Scholarship
Constantino and Laidlaw Memorial Scholarship
The Syracuse Track Club is pleased to announce the availability of $4000 (scholarships range from $500 to $1000 per winner) in scholarships to be awarded to deserving high school seniors who run on their school's Cross-Country and/or Track teams. Scholarship decisions are based on an applicant’s overall commitment to the sport of running, their self-improvement, and need; not solely their race times.
Scholarships are given in memory of George Constantino, a long time Track and Field and Cross Country Coach at Nottingham High School and a founder of the Syracuse Track Club, as well as Bruce Laidlaw, longtime contributor to the local running community and founder of the Constantino Scholarship.
ELIGIBILITY: Applicants must be seniors currently competing (cross-country and/or track & field) in a Section III school. A Syracuse Track Club membership is not required, nor is a plan to run competitively in college.**
DEADLINE: December 1st, 2025.
AWARD PRESENTATION: Scholarship winners will be notified by the end of December. Presentations of the scholarship checks will be at the STC Annual Banquet in January 2026.
All scholarship applicants will receive a FREE Syracuse Track Club membership that lasts throughout their undergraduate years and 1 year after college! STC membership perks include discounted race entry fees, access to our year-round training groups, and invitations to our brunches, picnics, and banquets!
This scholarship is funded by the STC and the generosity of the individuals and groups it assists!
