The Colorado State Rams track and field team is the track and field program that represents Colorado State University. The Rams compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Mountain West Conference. The team is based in Fort Collins, Colorado, at the Jack Christiansen Track Facility.[2]
The program is coached by Brian Bedard.[3] The track and field program officially encompasses four teams because the NCAA considers men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.[4]
In 2001, runner Bryan Berryhill became the school's first two-time individual NCAA champion. Berryhill won both the mile at the 2001 NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships and 1500 m at the 2001 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships, doing the latter by utilizing a fast start.[5][6]
