In 2018, UGA’s women’s and men’s track and field teams each won their first national championship in program history. The men’s team captured its national championship in June at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon. The team title for the men came three months after the women won the top prize at the 2018 NCAA Indoor Championships in College Station, Texas. The women’s and men’s track and field teams are coached by Petros Kyprianou, who was named 2018 National Women’s Indoor Coach of the Year.
