The program is coached by Shantel Twiggs.[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]
The men's track and field team was founded just after World War I.[5] In 1992, javelin thrower Kamy Keshmiri became the school's first three-time NCAA champion.[6]
Following the 1993 season, the men's team was cut due to budget cuts.[5] The men's teams had a US$200,000 budget.[7]
Postseason
As of August 2025[update], a total of 11 men and 4 women have achieved individual first-team All-American status for the team at the Division I men's outdoor, women's outdoor, men's indoor, or women's indoor national championships (using the modern criteria of top-8 placing regardless of athlete nationality).[8][9]
