Ty McCormack knows his experience next month in South Korea will be like an official transition from college running greatness to his work as a business professional. After achieving elite status during his five-year career at Clemson, as an undergraduate, and Auburn, as a graduate student, the 2010 North Hall High graduate will run the 10,000 meter (6.2 miles) on July 9 at the World University Games in Gwangju, South Korea. This is one last experience as an amateur athlete for McCormack, before he balances life as a financial planner and explores professional-running opportunities.
