Bob Clasen
- Induction:
- 2024
Bob Clasen (1963-66) was an All-American for the BG track and field team, and was part of numerous record-setting performances. Clasen was a member of the Mile Relay team that placed sixth at the 1965 NCAA Outdoor Championships, and the quartet finished fifth in that event at the 1966 national meet. The Falcons won that event at the MAC Championships in both 1965 and ‘66.
Clasen was a part of groups that set the school records in both the indoor and outdoor mile relay, as well as the indoor records in both the 800 relay and the 880 yard relay events. Individually, Clasen set the school record in the 800, with a time of 1:50.6. That record was broken by Dave Wottle, who Clasen joined in the BGSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2024.
