University of Florida’s Dr. Robert Cade, the professor who led the group that invented Gatorade, passed away today at the age of 80. Cade’s death was confirmed by The Gainesville (Fla.) Sun after speaking with his family. He reportedly died of kidney failure.
Gatorade has generated more than $150 million for the university since Cade and his fellow scientists developed the sports beverage and named it after the school mascot (The Florida Gator) in 1965.
Cade is survived by his wife and six children.
Which currently declared candidate would most improve USATF if elected as President of the Board of Directors?
