TEXAN TRACK AND FIELD will send five athletes to the 2026 NCAA Division I Track and Field Championships on Friday and Saturday in Fayetteville, Arkanas, at the Randal Tyson Track Center. The Texans set a new program record with five student-athletes earning a selection to the indoor championships. The Indoor Track and Field Championships only select the top 16 individuals in each of the events based on their season best performances. Individual and team conference champions do not receive an automatic bid, just the top 16 individuals with the best marks during the regular season or conference championships. In the track events, the 16 racers will compete in the semifinals on Friday with the top 8 advancing to the finals on Saturday. In the field events, it will only be competed once with the finals the only iteration of the event. Victoria Cameron, Prestina Ochonogor and Lokesh Sathyanathan will make their second indoor national championships appearances as a Texan. Freshman JayBrion Jones and senior Lauren Roy will head to the indoor championships for the first time. Cameron will run in the 60 meters, entering tied for the top mark in the NCAA this season with a season-best of 7.08 seconds. Jones will be in the men's 60 meters. Jones is one of just two non-Power four runners and one of two freshmen among the 16 men selected. Roy earned a bid in both the women's 60 meters and 200 meters. She is one of four women to be selected in both the 60 and 200 meters. Roy was the WAC Champion in the 200 meters and placed second in the 60 behind Cameron at the WAC Championships. Sathyanathan will compete in the long jump, where he ranks in the top 30 in the world this year and is the top Indian-born jumper. Ochonogor will also compete in the long jump, where she broke the All-time WAC record earlier this season with a 6.69-meter leap. The Texans will open at the Indoor Championships on Friday with the women's long jump. All five athletes will compete on the first day, with the track events featuring the semifinals and both the men's and women's long jump finals. The track athletes will race in the finals on Saturday with a top eight performance in Friday's semifinals.
