The UTSA Roadrunners track and field team is the track and field program that represents University of Texas at San Antonio. The Roadrunners compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the American Conference. The team is based in San Antonio, Texas at the Park West Athletics Complex.[2]

The program is coached by Aaron Fox.[3] The track and field program officially encompasses four teams, as the NCAA regards men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.[4]

UTSA sprinter Leonard Byrd qualified for the 2001 World Championships in Athletics in the 4 × 400 m relay, winning the gold medal before being disqualified due to his teammate doping. Byrd was considered a hopeful for the 1996 Olympic team.[5][6]

Postseason

As of 2024, a total of 10 men and 7 women have achieved individual first-team All-American status at the men's outdoor, women's outdoor, men's indoor, or women's indoor national championships.[7][8]
