Olympic track and field trials go back to Eugene

The 2020 U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials are headed back to Eugene, Ore., it was announced Thursday, one year after the meet was originally awarded to Mt. San Antonio College (SAC) in Walnut, Calif.

The University of Oregon will host the trials for a fourth straight time dating to 2008.

USA Track and Field announced in June 2017 that Mt. SAC would host the 2020 trials. USATF said three months ago that bidding was reopened amid litigation surrounding the construction of a new stadium at Mt. SAC.

The Los Angeles area college originally beat out Eugene, Ore.
