The Kansas Jayhawks track and field team is the track and field program that represents University of Kansas. The Jayhawks compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Big 12 Conference. The team is based in Lawrence, Kansas, at the Rock Chalk Park.
The program is coached by Stanley Redwine. The track and field program officially encompasses four teams because the NCAA considers men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.
The Kansas men won their first national team title at the 1959 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships. Karl Salb won the most NCAA individual titles, with six in the shot put from 1969 to 1971.
The track and field program hosts the Kansas Relays annually since 1923. They also participate in the KU-KSU-WSU Triangular since 2015.
