MISSISSIPPI STATE TRACK & FIELD TRACK AND FIELD FACILITIES

MIKE SANDERS TRACK COMPLEX On Friday, April 10, 2015, the Mississippi State University track was named the Mike Sanders Track Complex after former track standout Michael W. Sanders. Over the past several years, the track stadium at MSU has seen many enhancements. A brick grandstand was added in 2013 and holds about 3,500 people. MSU played host to the 2015 SEC Outdoor Track and Field Championships on May 14-16, at the newly-dedicated Mike Sanders Track Complex. Also during the 2015 season, MSU hosted the Border Clash and the Jace LaCoste Invitational. The facility now hosts the annual Al Schmidt Bulldog Relays and the Maroon and White Invite. An MSU alumnus, Sanders began his college career in 1960 after receiving a dual scholarship for football and track and field. His football career ended due to injuries, but he was able to continue track and field during his time at State. In his sophomore year, he and fellow members of the MSU track team won the 1962 SEC championship. He is a member of the university’s M-Club for his achievements in track. After college, Sanders has served on the boards for the Alumni Foundation, the MSU Foundation and the Bulldog Club. In 2014, Sanders was named the Mississippi State National Alumnus of the Year. In 2019, he received the Leo Seal Jr. M-Club Award, created to honor a former letterman for his or her outstanding loyalty, dedication and service to Mississippi State. In addition, the award recognizes a former letterman who has been successful in business and the community. Sanders is the third former letterman to receive this award, which is not given annually. Today Sanders resides in Cleveland, Mississippi, with his wife Nan Long Sanders. Together the couple has two children, Michael W. Sanders and Amanda Sanders Turner, along with Sander’s daughter Ellen Sanders Voelkel and six grandchildren. CARL MADDOX TRACK & INFIELD Work was completed on MSU’s $3.2 million renovation to the Carl Maddox Track at W.O. Spencer Stadium in 2011 in time for several MSU home meets during that spring, including the SEC/Big 10 Challenge in March. The state-of-the-art facility features nine lines, a steeplechase water jump and high jump, pole vault and long/triple jump pits, in addition to a javelin runway and shot put, hammer and discus throw rings. W.O. SPENCER STADIUM The dedication of the W.O. Spencer Track Stadium took place on Nov. 13, 1982. Named after two-time Olympian and former MSU track and field athlete W.O. Spencer. His generous donations gave the MSU track program a grandstand that seats 3,500 fans.

Spencer lettered four years in track and three in cross country under former coach E.C. “Billy” Hayes. During his time on the track and field team, he served as the 1922 season captain and was the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association mile champion in 1921 and 1922. In the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris, Spencer won gold in the mile relay team and finished third in the steeplechase in the 1928 games in Amsterdam. After his competition year Spencer went on to become the MSU track and field coach from 1936-1947, minus four years while serving on active military duty. Spencer was installed in the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame in Jackson in 1968 and, in 1971, was inducted into the MSU Sports Hall of Fame. HOLLIMAN ATHLETIC CENTER Originally opened in April 2005 as a home to Bulldog football, the 46,000-square foot Holliman Athletic Center now houses the track and field locker rooms, team lounge, meeting room and equipment room along with the Columbus Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Center. The Holliman Athletic Center is named in honor of MSU graduate and longtime university and athletic program supporter W.G. “Mickey” Holliman of Tupelo, Mississippi. A native of Shuqualak, Mississippi, Holliman was the co-founder of Action Industries, now known as Lane Furniture, and is chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Furniture Brands International. He serves on the executive committee of the Bulldog Club, the Board of Directors of the MSU Foundation and is the immediate past president of the Bulldog Club. Regarded as one of the best facilities in the nation, the MSU track and field team locker rooms and team lounge are located on the second floor of the facility and provide quick access to the Mike Sanders Track Complex. A hallway running between the areas highlights Bulldog greats from throughout the program’s history. A large equipment room and laundry room finish out the space. On the ground floor of the building, the Columbus Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Center is the primary sports medicine facility for the track and field and tennis teams and is a secondary facility for soccer, softball, volleyball, and women’s golf. It also serves as an administrative hub for the sports medicine and performance department, including the department of counseling and sport psychology. The 4,500-square foot athletic training facility was made possible through a naming gift from the Columbus Orthopaedic Clinic, whose surgeons began handling the sports medicine needs of MSU student-athletes in 1981. Six of the orthopaedic surgeons at the clinic are State graduates themselves.

TEMPLETON CENTER ATRIUM

SHIRA FIELDHOUSE

LARRY H. TEMPLETON CENTER

Named in honor of the late Charles N. Shira, former MSU head football coach and athletic director, the two-story complex opened in the mid-1970s. When opened at that time, it housed the football locker room and a 50-yard-long indoor practice field, as well as the main athletic equipment, training and weight rooms.

The facility is an addition to two existing facilities in the athletic wing of the MSU campus - the Shira Complex and the Holliman Athletic Center. It is situated on the south side of those two facilities, and across the street from the Bryan Athletic Administration Building.

The Shira Fieldhouse Complex, which underwent a million-dollar renovation in 1992 and another facelift in 2017, serves as one of Mississippi State’s two primary facilities for conditioning, treating and equipping Bulldog athletes.

Since MSU football’s move to the Leo Seal Jr. Complex in 2013, the Shira Fieldhouse Complex has maintained its purpose of housing training facilities for many of the athletic teams on campus. The indoor turf room was renovated in 2017 to incorporate a new look, energy-efficient lighting and a netted area for the track and field team to practice field events indoors. The adjoining weight room also received several updates in 2017 including fresh graphics, new lighting and new flooring.

Dedicated on November 1, 2008, the Templeton Athletic Academic Center was a welcome addition to the Bulldog athletic program. The $10 million facility is named for former MSU Director of Athletics Larry Templeton.

The 34,000 square-foot building serves the entire athletic department, houses the Athletic Academics offices and staff, and includes individual computer rooms, tutor work areas, a large open study area and a 300-seat dining facility with a fully-functioning kitchen. Templeton, now Athletic Director Emeritus, served 22 years as Director of Athletics and during his tenure helped position MSU Athletics as an innovative, progressive program, with equality in sports for women, new and renovated facilities and keen fiscal management.

In his first season at the helm, Woods and his staff saw it be cut short by COVID-19. For the 2020 indoor season, State started off strong with 38 top-10 finishers at the UAB Blazer Invitational. They’d go on to have eight athletes compete to personal bests at the Vanderbilt Invite and then 15 top-three finishes at Michigan’s Power 5 Invitational. At Clemson’s Tiger Paw Invite and Vanderbilt’s Music City Challenge, the Bulldogs had six student-athletes post personal bests, one set a school record and had 14 top-10 finishers. Charlotte Cayton-Smith, Dejon Devroe and Jesse Henderson advanced to the finals at the SEC Indoor Championships in College Station. The outdoor season would be canceled, halting the State alumni’s first year at the head coach position. After guiding the Mississippi State men’s team to its third-highest point total in school history at the 2019 NCAA Outdoor Championships, Chris Woods was named head coach of the Bulldog men’s and women’s track and field teams, Director of Athletics John Cohen announced June 14, 2019. “We conducted a national search, and the best fit for our next head coach was right here in Starkville,” Cohen said. “I am excited for Chris and the future of Mississippi State track and field. Chris knows exactly what it means to be a Bulldog having lettered and served as assistant coach and interim head coach at Mississippi State. Our program continues to produce many of the world’s best, All-Americans and champions at a record pace. Chris understands what it takes for our program to continue the path to championships and develop our student-athletes to the fullest. My sincere congratulations goes out to Chris, Wanda, Trace and Cade.” “This is one of the happiest days of my life,” Woods said upon his hiring. “It’s an honor to serve my alma mater and a dream come true. I would like to thank my family who stuck with me through the process. I also would like to

thank John Cohen and (President) Mark Keenum for this wonderful opportunity. I love Mississippi State. It’s important that every day, we put our best foot forward always in the best interest of Mississippi State. My vision for Mississippi State track and field is for us to climb even further heights with the focus on winning championships.” Shortly after being named head coach, back-to-back NCAA Champion Anderson Peters and three-time All-American Marco Arop found success on the global stage. Peters won gold at the Pan American Games while shattering the Pan Am record with a personal-best and MSU-record throw of 87.31m. He went on the claim the IAAF World Championship in October of that year. Arop won gold at the Pan American Games, clocking a meet-record and MSU record 1:44.25 in the 800m. Arop advanced to the 800m finals at the IAAF World Championships after clocking in at 1:45.07 to place second in his semifinal heat, and would go on to finish seventh in the world in the finals. Woods had served as the interim head coach since Sept. 20, 2018, after five seasons as a sprinters and relays coach for both the MSU men and women. With its 11th-place and 24-point showing at the 2019 NCAA Outdoor Championships, State secured its third-highest point total in program history and second-best mark since 1982. Woods helped guide the men and women to a combined seven All-America honors in the 2019 outdoor season. MSU’s men put together the most-decorated outdoor season in program history, claiming more SEC Athletes of the Week and USTFCCCA National Athletes of the Week than ever before along with four All-America accolades. The Bulldogs put six men on the podium at the SEC Championships, the most since State earned eight medals in 2003. They finished the conference meet with 57 points, their highest total since 2012.

MISSISSIPPI STATE TRACK & FIELD COACHING STAFF Outdoors finish was its best since 2015. Woods spearheaded the Bulldogs to nine medals, representing their most since 2003. In addition, a total of 28 men and women athletes qualified for the NCAA East Prelims, which was a program record. The Bulldog men broke two school records, including the oldest, untied, Championship-event record in the program’s record book. The highlight of the 2019 outdoor season came when The Bowerman semifinalist Peters led an MSU javelin sweep of the podium. Peters successfully defended his national title, becoming the first MSU athlete to claim consecutive national championships. He threw a personal-best 86.62m (284-2), breaking his own school, meet and national records. Peters landed three attempts beyond 84.00m and threw six collegiate all-time top-10 marks this year alone. State’s trio of Peters, Curtis Thompson and Tyriq Horsford was just the 11th sweep of any event podium in NCAA history. Stephen Jones broke Simeon Kigen’s steeplechase record that had stood since 1982 by one second. In all, nine new marks landed in the men’s all-time top five last year. On the women’s side, Tiffany Flynn and Logan Boss both earned All-America status to close their storied careers earlier this month. Flynn finished eighth in the triple jump with a leap of 13.32m, while Boss tied for 12th in the high jump, clearing 1.78m. The 2019 outdoor season saw four women’s school records fall along with two freshmen records. The Bulldogs added 14 new marks to the program’s all-time outdoor top five. In his time as an assistant, Woods coached Bulldog athletes to 17 All-American selections and two SEC championships. His student-athletes hold 40 times in the MSU record books. In 2018 alone, Woods’ athletes put 15 new marks among the top five in MSU history. Four of the top five times in both the men’s and women’s indoor 4x400m relay came under his watch. In the men’s indoor 800m, the only time among the top five that he did not coach is his own set in 2008, which is still the fourth-fastest in school history. In 2018, he led Ro’Derick Spears to a school-record 13.65 in the outdoor 110m hurdles. Spears also joined Herbert Wise III, Willie-Lionel Reed and Charles Brockman III to break the school record in the outdoor shuttle hurdle relay twice that year. He also coached the 400m leg of the women’s indoor distance medley relay that set the MSU record in 2017 and the women’s indoor 4x400m relay team that broke that record in 2015. Woods competed as a Middle Distance athlete for the Maroon and White from 2005-08. As a student-athlete, Woods garnered two-time All-America honors and four-time All-SEC accolades. Before coming to MSU, Woods served as head coach for the men’s and women’s cross country and track and field teams at Claflin University in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Prior to his time with Claflin, Woods was instrumental in the success of Abilene Christian University’s track and field program as the men’s and women’s long sprints, middle and long distance coach. Under his direction at Abilene Christian, Woods aided his team to back-to-back NCAA Division II National Championships in men’s track and field. In 2011, Woods coached five runners who garnered multiple honors. Desmond Jackson claimed five All-America honors, Amos Sang claimed four All-America accolades, while Jordan Geary, Partis Rovertson and Lavance Williams each claimed All-America honors under Woods’ direction. In 2010, Woods coached nine All-America athletes, including multiple All-America honorees Desmond Jackson, James Hardin and Amos Sang. A native of Covington, Georgia, Woods graduated from MSU in 2008 with a

South Region Men’s Assistant Coach of the Year

After a successful season in 2019, April Thomas was promoted to associate head coach in June 2019. The leader of “JavU,” Thomas’ squad swept the men’s javelin podium at the 2019 NCAA Outdoor Championships, marking the first time since 1964 that a school had achieved the feat. Thomas was tabbed USTFCCCA South Region Men’s Assistant Coach of the Year in recognition of her squad’s success. In the summer following that performance, back-to-back NCAA Champion Anderson Peters found success on the global stage. Peters won gold at the Pan American Games while shattering the Pan Am record with a personalbest and MSU-record throw of 87.31m. He went on the claim the IAAF World Championship in October of that year. Thomas spent 12 seasons as an assistant coach overseeing MSU’s throwers. She has received national recognition for her expertise in guiding athletes in the javelin after leading the Bulldogs to become the only program in NCAA history to have three men throw the javelin over 80m, earning the title “Jav U”. Thomas’ athletes have earned eight top-three finishes in the NCAA javelin championships over the last five seasons. No other school has combined for more than four in that span. Bulldogs have also won the national championship in three of the last four years. Her throwers hold 20 marks in State’s outdoor record book and six on the indoor leaderboards. She has also guided three athletes to freshman records since arriving in Starkville. In 2018, she tutored Peters to the 2018 SEC and NCAA javelin championships as a freshman, while Nico Quijera placed second at the NCAA championships before going on to claim the Spanish national title. Thomas also coached Curtis Thompson to a national title in 2016. Thompson won the 2018 USATF Championship, and at the 2018 NACAC Games, Peters and Thompson took home

gold and silver, respectively. In 2017, Thomas saw Quijera win his first NCAA runner-up title in the javelin, Brianna Smith shatter the Bulldogs’ indoor weight throw record for the first time and Haley Reynolds break State’s indoor shot put and outdoor discus records. In addition to his 2016 crown, Thompson won gold in the javelin at the NACAC U23 Games that year and broke the school record at the U.S. Olympic Trials where he came up just 12 centimeters shy of qualifying for the Rio Olympics. Tautvydas Kieras qualified for the 2015 NCAA East Prelims in the discus throw. Kieras, who holds the school record at 60.03m, placed 23rd. That same year, Kieras posted the No. 5 mark in outdoor shot put in Bulldog history. Under Thomas’s guidance in the shot put, Erica Bougard claimed the 2013 pentathlon NCAA Championship title with 4,399 points and the 2014 SEC Indoor Championship after a 4,448 point performance. Bougard finished a stellar Bulldog career as a 16-time All-American and won the 2018 USATF Championship in the indoor pentathlon. In 2013, Thomas coached honorable mention All-American Piotr Antosik in javelin, giving the Bulldogs a national finalist in the men’s javelin for the first time since 1923 and sparking the growth of State’s javelin program. Allison Storey also broke the MSU women’s javelin record in the same year after setting the Bulldogs’ freshman record in 2010. Thomas led Favian Cowards to All-American honors in the 2012 season with a ninth-place finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in the hammer while breaking the MSU school record along the way. Cowards also won the Bulldogs’ first SEC Championship in the weight throw that year. That season also saw Ed Wesela post the No. 2 outdoor shot put and No. 3 indoor shot put marks in MSU history.

MISSISSIPPI STATE TRACK & FIELD COACHING STAFF In 2010, Thomas helped coach LaQuinta Aaron to personal-best throws in the shot put that helped her earn provisional qualifications in the heptathlon for the 2010 NCAA Outdoor Championships. In 2009 heptathlete Marrissa Harris earned indoor and outdoor All-American and All-SEC accolades under Thomas’ shot put tutelage. Thomas came to MSU after coaching boys’ and girls’ shot put and discus at Knoxville (Tenn.) Catholic High School and with the Knoxville Track Club. A native of Albany, Georgia, Thomas earned her degree in sociology from University of Tennessee in 2007.

CARJAY LYLES FAST FACTS PERSONAL Birthday Birthplace Hometown

Jan. 25 Cincinnati, Ohio Stone Mountain, Ga. 2x Midwest Region Women’s Assistant Coach of the Year

Carjay Lyles was hired as an assistant coach on Aug. 9, 2019, to work with State’s horizontal jumps along with the short sprints and short hurdles. Lyles comes to Starkville after spending the previous season as an assistant at Southern Cal. The Stone Mountain, Georgia, native arrives with a track record of national and international success across the sprints, hurdles and jumps. In his most recent stop as the jumps and combined events coach with the Trojans, he served as the recruiting coordinator and shared meet management duties for home events. The 2019 season saw USC’s women finish as national runners-up at the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships while winning both conference championships. He coached indoor and outdoor conference champion Earnest Sears in the men’s high jump along with the women’s indoor long jump champion Lanae-Tava Thomas. Indoors, he also picked up silver medals in the women’s long and triple jumps, and his athlete was the outdoor runner-up in the women’s triple jump. Outdoors, Margaux Jones ranked ninth among collegiate women in the long jump. In what proved to be one of the breakout performances of 2019, Lyles coached Puerto Rican Ayden Owens to a school-record 8,130 points in the decathlon, earning him Pac-12 Athlete of the Week honors. In addition to breaking the Trojans’ 35-year-old record, that mark stood as the Puerto Rican national record, the NCAA freshman record and was the season’s world best at the time. Owens also earned a bid to the 2019 Pan American Games and was named the Pac-12 Men’s Freshman of the Year, giving Lyles his second athlete to win Freshman of the Year in a Power Five conference. He finished sixth in the heptathlon at the NCAA Indoor Championships. Sears gave Lyles two NCAA leaders with the top high jump mark in the 2019 outdoor season at 2.27m. Indoors, Sears ranked fifth in the nation before finishing fourth at the NCAA Championships. He continued on to win a silver medal for the United States at the NACAC U23 Championships, clearing 2.25m. With his spot on Team USA’s roster, he became the seventh athlete coached by Lyles to represent his home nation in the past eight years. In his lone year at USC, Lyles coached Trojans to six conference medals and totaled 67 conference points, while adding three marks to the Trojans’ all-time top 10 in the jumps. His athletes earned five All-America honors. Lyles spent the 2018 season at Akron coaching the sprints, hurdles, jumps and relays. His athletes posted 12 marks in the Zips all-time top 10, including three school records. He led Zips to 10 All-MAC selections as they won the women’s team title outdoors. Both the men and women were the league’s runners-up indoors. Akron sent its largest group of athletes to the NCAA East Prelims in program history in 2018. In one season with the Zips, Dara Perry became the first hurdler from the MAC to advance to the NCAA championships in over a decade. Perry trimmed

Taron Sloane and Daziah Green also improved by more than half of a second in the 200m at the NCAA East Prelims championships. Kwad Smith, who was listed as one of the fastest football players in the country in 2018, posted times of 6.72 in the 60m and 10.29 in the 100m during Lyles’ lone season with the Zips. Lyles spent the 2014-17 seasons in the SEC at Missouri where he worked with the sprints, hurdles, jumps and relays. He helped rewrite the Tigers’ record book with 13 school records, five All-SEC performances, and two World Junior Championships finalists. His athletes earned 16 All-America honors, and four athletes represented their home nations in international competitions. In 2016 he coached Kahmari Montgomery to USTFCCCA Midwest Athlete of the Year and SEC Freshman of the Year honors. Montgomery won both the indoor and outdoor SEC championships in the 400m, recorded top-15 times in the world in the 400m and finished sixth in the event at the World Junior Championships. That same year, he tutored Valerie Thames as she broke three school records and was the first hurdler (male or female) to make the finals in both hurdles competitions in the history of the SEC Outdoor Championships. For his efforts he was named USTFCCCA’s Midwest Region Women’s Assistant Coach of the Year for the second time in his career. Lyles coached three 16.00m-plus triple jumpers during the 2015-16 seasons. Markesh Woodson claimed multiple SEC runner-up finishes in the 60m and was a three-time indoor All-American in the event. In 2016, he finished sixth at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in the 100m. Lyles also served as the Missouri’s academic liaison and international recruiting coordinator. In 2015, the Tiger women boasted the third-highest GPA in the SEC and the program posted 70 SEC Academic Honor Roll selections in his time in Columbia. He spent the prior four seasons in his first full-time job as an assistant overseeing sprints, hurdles and relays at San Diego State. In his final year with the Aztecs, he won the 2013 USFTCCCA West Region Women’s Assistant Coach of the Year award as Shanieka Thomas won the triple jump at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. In the previous season, he saw the SDSU women finish ninth at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, their best finish in program history. Lyles’ athletes won 17 conference titles, earned 14 All-American honors and set 24 school and class records. Thomas earned Mountain West Athlete of the Year honors on her way to a runner-up finish at the 2012 NCAA Outdoor Championships. Prior to joining the Aztecs, Lyles trained under 1984 Olympic Gold Medalist Al Joyner at the U.S. Olympic Training Center while assisting in coaching

Patrick McGregor was hired to lead the Bulldogs’ cross country program and serve as an assistant coach for the track season on Aug. 9, 2019. In his first cross country season at Mississippi State, McGregor coached Stephen Jones to All-Region accolades after he crossed the line 11th at the NCAA South Regional to earn a bid to the NCAA Championship. Jones became the second Bulldog to advance to the men’s NCAA Championship and he recorded the highest men’s finish in school history at 80th place. McGregor came to MSU from Kentucky where he was a volunteer assistant coach, but he got his start in coaching as an assistant at Samford in the fall of 2016. His impact was immediately felt as Samford’s men and women both placed second at the Southern Conference Cross Country Championships. Arse’ne Guillorel was the third overall finisher on the men’s side, and Karisa Nelson won the conference title for the women. Both individuals went on to place fourth at the NCAA South Region Championships while their teams landed among the top 10. On the track, he guided Nelson to the 2017 national title in the indoor mile, and saw his athletes post 18 marks that were among the top 10 in the conference in their respective events. Nelson claimed the conference crown in both the outdoor 1500m and indoor 3000m while Guillorel won the indoor men’s 3000m and 5000m titles. Presley Weems, sister of MSU’s Ava Weems, won the 800m to give McGregor five conference champions in his first track season. The Bulldog women won the SoCon team title with McGregor’s athletes contributing 20 percent of their team score. Guillorel highlighted the men’s efforts, including a third-place distance medley relay, as distance athletes scored 42 of the Bulldogs’ 155 points. Outdoors, Nelson again posted the top 800m time in the league and was joined by Brandon Hazouri who led the men’s event. Guillorel held the top time in the 10,000m. Weems and Nelson won league titles in the 800m and 1500m, respectively, while McGregor’s men were runners-up in the 1500m and 10,000m. Samford’s women again won the conference title. On the national stage, Nelson place third in the 1500m at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, and Guillorel finished fourth in the 10,000m. In 2017, Samford again landed among the conference leaders in cross country. After finishing as SoCon runners-up, the women placed third at the NCAA South Region Championships. Nelson placed second as an individual and McGregor’s group put three women in the top 10. McGregor added two more conference championships in the 2018 outdoor track season. Haley Ward won the women’s 10,000m, and Guillorel won the men’s 1500m. In his two seasons at Samford, McGregor totaled nine individual conference

In his lone season at Kentucky, he collaborated with the head strength and conditioning coach and assisted the coaching staff with athlete preparation. The Wildcat women placed 14th at the 2019 NCAA Outdoor Championships and were third at the SEC Outdoor Championships. An accomplished runner himself, McGregor competed at Texas for three years. In that time, he contributed to the Longhorns 2013 Big 12 Indoor and Outdoor championships by winning the individual 1,000m title indoors and scoring in the 800m outdoors. He competed at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in the 1500m twice earning Second-Team All-American honors, and was a seven-time All-Big 12 selection. He then went on to compete professionally with the NJNY Track Club under “The Godfather of Track and Field” Frank Gagliano where he became a subfour-minute miler. In 2017, while coaching at Samford he broke the record for the longest known streak of daily sub-five-minute miles set by his high school coach Devon Hind in 1979. McGregor clocked a 4:12.99 on the 105th day, breaking Hind’s record of 104 days while also running his fastest time in that span. His streak continued to 109 days.

2020 DIDN’T HAPPEN AS PLANNED The COVID-19 pandemic canceled the NCAA Indoor Championships, scheduled to be held at the Albuquerque Convention Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, from March 14 to 15. The announcement that all winter and spring championships were canceled due to coronavirus concerns came from the NCAA on March 12, two days before the ITF Championships were scheduled to begin. With the entire Outdoor Track and Field season coming to a halt and the Indoor season not seeing its true end, spring athletes were offered an extra year of eligibility. Due to COVID-19 restrictions and budgetary considerations, the men did not participate in a fall cross country season while the women participated in a shortened version.
