The four-day NCAA Division I track and field championships begin on Wednesday night, and for fans of the sport it offers a glimpse of not just the future, but the present. With the world championships coming late this year, it won't be a surprise to see multiple athletes crowned champions and All-Americans this week go on to represent their respective countries at the worlds in Budapest come August.
The NCAA finals are held at the University of Texas' Myers Stadium, with the men's semifinals kicking things off Wednesday followed by women's semis on Thursday. Men's finals are Friday, and women on Saturday. All four days will be shown on ESPN2, with streams for all field events on ESPN+.
Ask any current or former runner: the 400 is grueling, arguably the toughest track event there is. It's basically full-out for a full lap of the track. The only thing tougher might be the 400 with 10 barriers to clear on the way around the lap. As the defending national champion in 400 hurdles, she is again the fastest woman in the country in the event by a very comfortable margin. She ran it in 53.71 seconds at the NCAA West regional late last month, two full seconds better than the second-seeded runner, Houston's Sydni Townsend.
