On Wednesday, the NCAA announced that the University of Oregon’s Historic Hayward Field will host the NCAA Track and Field Championships through 2021. The association announced the sites for 82 of its 89 championships through the 2018 season, making Hayward Field the only site to be awarded a championship past the 2018 season. Prior to the announcement, Hayward Field had been determined the site of the upcoming 2014 NCAA Track and Field Championships. Eugene was previously the home of the 2013 NCAA championships and has played host to the 2010 and 2001 championships since the turn of the century.

“We are excited that Hayward Field will remain the dream destination for every Division I athlete, and we plan to turn the NCAA Championships into the hottest ticket in the sport,” University of Oregon Senior Associate Athletic Director and President of TrackTown USA Vin Lananna told GoDucks.com. “It took a remarkable partnership of entities from not only the Eugene-Springfield community but the entire State of Oregon to make this commitment to the sport of track and field.”

Other high-profile events on tap for TrackTown in upcoming years include the 2014 IAAF World Junior Championships this summer, the 2015 USA Championships and the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials.
