The Buccaneer Men and Women's Cross Country team's honor the memory of former Buccaneer 1st Lt.Travis J. Fuller annually, who tragically perished in a helicopter crash in 2005 while serving our Nation during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

1st Lt. Fuller was a standout student and athlete who put as much effort and education into his physical training as he did in the classroom. Fuller, a Granville, MA native, was a 1997 graduate of Southwick-Tolland Regional High School, who went on to attend Massachusetts Maritime Academy in Bourne, where he earned a bachelor of science degree in marine transportation.

1st Lt. Fuller was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, Marine Corps Base Hawaii; he was killed Jan. 26, 2005 when the CH-53E helicopter in which he was riding crashed near Rutbah, Iraq. Twenty-nine Marines and one sailor also were killed.

All Donations and Entry fees will be used to support Bucs Cross Country.
