The Indiana Hoosiers track and field team is the track and field program that represents Indiana University Bloomington. The Hoosiers compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Big Ten Conference. The team is based in Bloomington, Indiana at the Robert C. Haugh Complex. [3]
The program is coached by Ed Beathea. [4] 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. [5]
The team won the 1932 NCAA Track and Field Championships. Derek Drouin is the only Hoosier athlete to have won five individual NCAA titles. [6]
The Hoosiers have had 7 AIAW All-Americans finishing in the top six at the AIAW indoor or outdoor championships. [7]
