USC Men Earn Share of NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Title
- USC and Texas A&M each scored 41 points to share the national team championship in men's outdoor track and field at Hayward Field on Friday night.
- The shared championship resulted after South Florida's late 1,600-meter relay win denied Arkansas' protest and prevented Texas A&M from an outright title.
- USC earned points across seven events without winning any individual title, highlighted by a strong 4x400 relay that finished seventh, securing a vital single point.
- Arvesta Troupe of Mississippi won the high jump clearing 7-5, while Oklahoma’s Ralford Mullings set a meet record by winning discus with a 227'4" throw.
- The tie gave USC its first outdoor crown since 1976, making 27 outdoor titles total—more than twice any other program’s—and marked a rare double national championship year after their indoor win.
