SEATTLE – The big meet to crown the outdoor champs goes down in Eugene this Wednesday through Saturday. Hayward Field plays host once again to the NCAA Outdoor Championships and eleven Huskies are on their way to vie for hardware.

 

Men’s events will take place on Wednesday and Friday, and women’s events go on Thursday and Saturday, with the exception of the multis, as Sofia Cosculluela will compete in the heptathlon from Friday-Saturday.

 

Track events all four days will be televised live on the ESPN networks, while field events will have dedicated live streams on ESPN+. Day one on Wednesday will go live on ESPN at 4 p.m. Day two on Thursday will also be live on ESPN at 4 p.m. Day three on Friday will be on ESPN2 at 5 p.m. and day four will be on ESPN2 starting at 6 p.m.

 

The Husky women’s team has eight athletes set to compete in nine events, with the men adding three in three events. Amina Maatoug is the one Dawg entered in two events, doing the 1,500-meters and the 5,000-meters. Indoors, Maatoug also doubled at nationals, taking fifth in the mile then coming back to finish fourth in the 3k.

 

The women are coming off a fourth-place NCAA Indoors finish and hoping to rack up another big point total and crack the top-10 outdoors as well. Washington has finished in the top-25 in four of the past five NCAA Outdoor Championships on the women’s side.

 

The Husky men were 19th indoors this season, and are going for a fourth consecutive top-20 finish at the outdoor championships.

 

Several Huskies are set for their first career individual NCAA Championships this week. Sofia Cosculluela in the heptathlon and Maggie Liebich in the steeplechase are set for their first nationals, while Julia David-Smith competes as an individual for the first time, after running on the DMR indoors.

 

On the other side, Nathan Green is back for his fourth-straight NCAA Outdoors, as one of the favorites for the 1,500m title which he won in 2023. UW has won the past three titles in that event, with one from Green and two from Joe Waskom in 2022 and 2024.

 

Amanda and Hana Moll head into the women’s pole vault as the top two seeds once again. The sophomores went 1-2 at the NCAA Indoor Championships this year. Both have one indoor national title to their credit and both are seeking their first title outdoors.

 

Athletes reached Eugene by surviving the West and East Preliminary Championships two weeks ago in College Station, Texas and Jacksonville, Fla. respectively. Each site advanced the top-12 athletes or relays in every event on to Eugene for fields of 24 in each event.

 

Team scores are compiled by individuals and relays finishing in the top-eight in their events. Points for the top eight places are the standard 10 for first-place, 8 for second, then 6-5-4-3-2-1 for third-through-eighth. The USTFCCCA All-America format remains the same this season, as the top-eight finishers in every event will be named First Team All-Americans, the 9-16 finishers will be Second Team All-Americans, and 17-24 will be honorable mention.
