The TCU Horned Frogs track and field team is the track and field program that represents Texas Christian University. The Horned Frogs compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Big 12 Conference. The team is based in Fort Worth, Texas, at the Lowdon Track and Field Complex.[2]
The program is coached by Khadevis Robinson.[3] The track and field program officially encompasses four teams because the NCAA considers men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.[4]
Jamaican sprinter Ray Stewart won five NCAA individual titles for the Horned Frogs from 1987 to 1989.[5][6] In 2022, TCU coach Khadevis Robinson replaced Darryl Anderson, who had previously coached the programs for 18 seasons but was fired.[7]
In 2005, the TCU track and field teams were found to have violated NCAA rules.[8] The violations included unauthorized athlete payments and academic fraud, as an assistant coach was found to have taken a final exam and purchased essays on behalf of a student-athlete.[9] As a result, placings from nine affected athletes that spanned between 1997 and 2004 were vacated,[10][11] and the program was not scored as a team (although individuals were still allowed to compete) at post-season competitions during the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 seasons.[12][13] The program also withheld itself from competing in 2004-2005 season championships.[14] As a result of the decision, publications have sometimes considered all of the TCU men's team postseason marks from 1997 to 2004 to have been vacated.[15]
Postseason
[edit]As of August 2025[update], a total of 51 men and 18 women have achieved individual first-team All-American status for the team at the Division I men's outdoor, women's outdoor, men's indoor, or women's indoor national championships (using the modern criteria of top-8 placing regardless of athlete nationality).[16][17]
