PULLMAN, Wash. (June 16, 2025) - Washington State University Athletics announced an update to the Track & Field programs Monday.
Earlier today, WSU Athletics leadership met with members of the men's and women's track and field team to inform them that the program will be shifting to a distance-focused approach. This change gives the WSU Track & Field program the best opportunity to remain competitive at the conference and national levels in distance events in cross country, indoor track and field, and outdoor track and field. It does mean, however, that field events (e.g., jumps, throws) will no longer be supported, effective immediately, and the number of sprint and hurdle opportunities will be limited moving forward.
