List of United States collegiate records in track and field

Add article description


The United States collegiate records in track and field are the best marks in track and field events from collegiate athletes (of any nationality), done while the athletes were competing for an American institution of higher education. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) track and field system has been touted as one of the main reasons for the success of the United States on the global stage of athletics.[1] All of the collegiate records come from athletes competing in the NCAA, with the exception of the outdoor women's 1500 metres record (NAIA).

Jenny Barringer set collegiate records in six events representing the Colorado Buffaloes, though none of them still stand
Elijah Hall posing with the clock after setting a collegiate record of 20.02 seconds in the indoor 200 m, a mark that also stands as the American record and the #2 performance of all time

In the case of outdoor record-breaking performances achieved during the summer after the relevant national collegiate spring track and field championship (for example, the NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships) has passed, both the best summer mark and the best in-season mark are listed.

Some of the records are maintained by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association or the Track & Field News publication.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Outdoor

Notes

  1. Pending ratification by World Athletics
  2. by official result and World Athletics sources; April 16 by USTFCCCA source, probably a typo
  3. 25 March 2021 by USTFCCCA web site
  4. Though the time is faster than the current indoor world record, it isn't officially ratified due to the fact that all athletes were not representing the same nation, a technicality enforced by the IAAF. Rai Benjamin has represented Antigua and Barbuda internationally but he is a U.S. citizen born in New York City so the mark stands as the all American-born record.[69]
  5. listed as 4 × 1600 but obviously incorrect conversion
  6. February 25 by USTFCCCA source, a typo
  7. by official result source; 27 January 2023 by USTFCCCA source, a typo
