Maryland track & field NCAA Championships preview

Five Maryland track and field athletes will be the final competitors for Terrapin athletics in 2018-19 this weekend at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field championships in Austin, Texas.

While the men’s and women’s teams finished just 10th and 13th out of 13 teams respectively at the Big Ten Championships, it was still a solid year for the program. The Terps have broken five individual records and one relay record, and had 18 performances that would rank in the top 10 all-time of a respective event.

Athletes qualify for the NCAA Championships by finishing in the top twelve of either the East or West Regional preliminary, which means only 24 qualified for this weekend’s meet.
