The tradition of track and field at Taylor is a long and successful one. We have qualified fifty-two men over the past six years for competition at the NAIA National Championship Meet. Trojans have won seven individual championships, All-American honors fifty-two times, two Outstanding Performer of the Meet Awards as well as numerous NAIA Scholar-Athlete Awards. The team has won nine Mid-Central Conference Championships in a row and five of the past eight National Christian College Championships. However, Taylor Track and Field is about much more than championships and honors.
