Times are certainly changing for the better. Here is the new indoor facility in Longview, Tx. There will now be two indoor facilities in Texas that are owned by the city and not affiliated with a university.

Love this from #Illini head coach Brad Underwood - asked if he has any issue/finds it unfair to have to play Houston IN Houston in the Sweet 16. "I could care less... I'm an old JUCO ball coach. I drove on 16 passenger fans. I drove from Dodge City, Kansas to Mesa, Arizona for a basketball game... If you had told me back then that I'm getting to coach basketball in the Sweet 16 and play Houston - I would sign up for it, I would crawl to get there." Says regardless of where the game is, Illinois would/will need to play well to beat the Cougars. (Video from NCAA)

The men's 4x400m was what a 4x4 relay should be: close, exciting and going to the last steps! All three teams delivered. #Tokyo2025,
Hang it in the Louvre. 🖼️

THREEPEAT COMPLETE 🥇🥇🥇 Team USA wins its third straight #WorldAthleticsChamps 4x100m title in 41.75, executing strongly from start to finish to claim the victory over Jamaica. Melissa Jefferson-Wooden claims her third gold of the Championships in the leadoff as Sha’Carri Richardson gets her first in the anchor. Tee Tee Terry, the second leg, has become a good luck charm on the relay as she’s the only member of the last three winning teams.

Correction: 12th at the bell. Other stats are correct.
Sensational stuff from Cole Hocker. 13th at the bell and had to run a bunch of extra distance on the last lap. Didn’t matter. 52.62 last lap, 25.50 last 200. The Olympic 1500 champion is the world 5000 champion.

A non-P4 athlete WON the women’s 100m & 200m!!! That should tell you the conference doesn’t matter AT ALL.

Came for gold, holding silver. But I’m not done. I came to Tokyo to deliver for my country and I will always show up for the United States. I am honored to stand on this 200m podium again, bringing home Silver for the second time🥈🇺🇸 This year asked a lot of me and I always answered. I kept showing up, trusting the plan and giving it my all. Last night I ran through the line with everything in me and I am proud of what I put down on that track. To my family, my girlfriend, my coaches, my sponsors, my team and every fan who believed, thank you. The unseen work of my support team never goes unnoticed, this medal is ours🥈 Grateful, hungry, still climbing. – KB

The goalposts are moving fast for Melissa Jefferson-Wooden 📈 As the now-two-time World champ got better and better at the 200m this season, it became clear her ceiling in both events was higher than ever before. Full video: youtu.be/qXsATNR2pWg?si=sUJJ…

The more the merrier! 🥳 The NCAA has announced that they are expanding the 2025 NCAA D1 XC Championship fields for both the men and the women by one team, each. The cross country national meet previously allowed 31 men's teams and 31 women's teams to qualify. However, a total of 32 men's teams and 32 women's teams will now advance to the 2025 NCAA XC Championships. The press release did not specify whether or not the number of accepted teams to the cross country national meet will remain at 32 teams in the future. This is the first time that the NCAA XC Championship field size has expanded since 1988. Per the NCAA press release, "Division I Men's and Women's Track and Field and Cross Country Oversight Committee members feel adding a 32nd team will elevate the championship competition and student-athlete experience, while being comfortably accommodated on the championship courses where the competitions are held. The move will increase the field size per gender from 255 to 262 total runners."
