The Rutgers Scarlet Knights track and field team is the track and field program that represents Rutgers University. The Scarlet Knights compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Big Ten Conference. The team is based in Piscataway, New Jersey, at the Bauer Track & Field Complex.[2]
The program is coached by Bobby Farrell.[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]
Debra Deutsch is the only Rutgers athlete to have won two individual national collegiate titles, having won the 60 yards hurdles at the 1978 and 1979 AIAW Indoor Track and Field Championships during the meet's de-facto championship status years.[5][6]
Postseason
AIAW
