Historical note
Women's Track and Field began at Iowa State University in 1974. The Track and Field program features many indoor and outdoor sports including, but not limited to, sprints, relays, hurdles, long and high jumps, shot put, and discus. Iowa State has produced many Track and Field athletes that have gone on to success at the Olympics. The most notable of these was Nawal El Moutawakel, a gold medal winner in the 400 meter hurdles at the Los Angeles Olympic games of 1984. She is Iowa State's only Track and Field Olympic gold medalist. Iowa State has also produced many All-Americans while competing at national events. Head coaches:
