Both the Falcons and Lady Falcons will compete in the NCAA Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships starting Thursday, May 21, 2015. The Falcons are second in the men's national rankings and the Lady Falcons are fourth in the women's national rankings. The Falcons are the two-time defending men's outdoor champions.
