Time NCAA Collegiate Rankings 1982 - 2019 Women’S Distance All Time NCAA Collegiate Rankings 1982 - 2019 Women’s Distance Indoor: 800, 1 Mile, 3000, 5000, Distance Medley Relay Outdoor: 800, 1500, 3000 Steeplechase, 5000, 10,000 Compiled & Edited by Richard J. Ceronie, Ph.D. University of New Mexico Track & Field Updated December 4, 2019 To be included the thresholds used for these rankings were: Indoor 800: 2:05.00 Indoor 1 Mile: 4:38.00 Indoor 3000: 9:10.00 Indoor 5000: 16:00.00 Indoor Distance Medley Relay: 11:02.00 Outdoor 800: 2:03.00 Outdoor 1500: 4:15.00 Outdoor 3000 Steeplechase: 10:00.00 Outdoor 5000: 16:00.00 Outdoor 10,000: 33:10.00 Why the Rankings? In early December, 2018 several members of the University of New Mexico women’s distance squad traveled to Boston University for a 5000 meter race. The group ran pretty well going 15:14.78, 15:15.24, 15:26.01, and 15:42.85. When our group returned to Albuquerque a sports media person asked me how those performances compared to the NCAA all-time ranking list from the past. It was a great question but I didn’t know the exact answer so I started looking for information. I found all-time Top 10 rankings in Track & Field News, and the United States Track & Field Cross Country Coaches Association, but not much else when it came to collegiate rankings. I have always enjoyed documenting cross country & track historical achievements, so I felt it would be interesting to provide deeper rankings for anyone who might want them. Think about it, a coach could have developed the 14th fastest athlete in collegiate history, but very few would know about it, and to be 14th fastest all-time in college history is a truly exceptional accomplishment. So through the TFRRS website, USTFCCCA history pages, university athletic webpages, old Track & Field News, Track & Field Newsletters, Tilastopaja, and local newspapers I begin to collect information. Originally, I had planned to document just the Top 25 in each event, but got very interested in deeper rankings so that I, and other coaches might compare and contrast different decades and the evolution of women’s distance running. So in many regards this is a history project. I am hopeful these rankings will provide a sense of historical accomplishment, and also a sense of how women’s distance running has progressed. Twenty years ago if a female athlete ran an indoor 5000 meter performance under 16:00.00 they were looked upon as one of the nations best. Now, just in the 2018-19 indoor season 32 women ran under that threshold. It is a testament to the outstanding achievements of the coaching profession, and a positive reflection on the great athletes who compete collegiately. ONE CAVEAT FOR THE INDOOR RANKINGS SECTION. It should be noted many track & field traditionalists do not agree with listing performances made on a track that is over 200 meters in length. From 2007–2009 I conducted an NCAA research study examining flat 200 meter track conversions. Using tens of thousands of pieces of data, I submitted my findings, and the NCAA adjusted performances made on a flat 200 track. Then from 2009-2012 an exhaustive research study was commissioned by the NCAA to examine track size relative to performance. This was a much more comprehensive study than the one I undertook, and the four members did an in-depth analysis. When published, the study looked at hundreds of thousands of actual indoor performances, and concluded at that time based on available data no discernable difference could be statistically found between banked 200 meter and 300 meter oversized tracks. While many have criticized the methodology of this study, none of those individuals have done any actual research themselves to come up with data-driven factual explanations. It will continue to be an area that needs examining and discussion. Therefore, not wanting to get into a philosophical discussion regarding that study, simply put, every indoor performance will be listed, whether made on a flat 200 meter track, banked 200 meter track, or 300 meter track. Each of you can decide how you feel about the issue. Given the NCAA accepts converted performances for NCAA qualifying (whether it be track size or altitude), those have been included as well. A ** after a performance indicates this is the athletes 200 meter best, but she has a faster performance on this ranking that was done on an oversized facility. A # or @ after a performance indicates the performance was converted by the NCAA, it is not the actual performance, but the actual performance is listed. I would greatly appreciate any corrections or additions as I view this project as a continual work. It is a huge amount of data. I have tried to double check every performance, but know prior to 2009 and the advent of the TFRRS website performances were not always consistently documented. Especially from 1982 – 2000 finding accurate performances and where they occurred was challenging. If you see anything please let me know at [email protected] The cut-off thresholds that were used were performances that either qualified for the NCAA meet, or were close to NCAA qualifying over the last 5-7 years. I was surprised at how many performances fit into the cut- off thresholds. I used 16:00.00 for both the indoor and outdoor 5000 even though I knew it would mean lots of performances listed. This is due to the fact the 5000 meter distance has always been the “standard” distance race. The following were the Cut-Off Thresholds I used for inclusion in these rankings: Indoor 800: 2:05.00 Indoor 1 Mile: 4:38.00 Indoor 3000: 9:10.00 Indoor 5000: 16:00.00 Indoor DMR: 11:02.00 Outdoor 800: 2:03.00 Outdoor 1500: 4:15.00 Outdoor 3000SC: 10:00.00 Outdoor 5000: 16:00.00 Outdoor 10,000: 33:10.00 Until 1998 college best performances were allowed from the first collegiate meet an athlete competed in their freshman year until the end of August following their senior year. In other words summer competitions were included in the formal Track & Field News rankings. In 1998 that recording method changed to outdoor performances were only allowed from March 1st until the completion of the NCAA Outdoor Championships that same year. Therefore, these rankings reflect performances that end at the NCAA Outdoor Championship and no summer performances are included. Interesting Analysis: How many performances met the Cut-off Thresholds for inclusion in these rankings at the end of each decade? In other words, has there been a significant improvement in the event over the years? The 1980’s was short two years given the NCAA had just begun offering championships for women. Of course, any improvement in total numbers may be a result of several factors: 1) more young women competing in the sport; 2) the proliferation of banked/oversized indoor tracks that produce faster performances; 3) more knowledge for high school coaches through coaching education (better preparation of athletes and better coaching); 4) improved meet management specifically setting up good competition situations that lead to NCAA qualifying; 5) improved collegiate coaching; 6) more scholarship funding being placed in distance running. 1982-1989 1990-1999 2000-2009 2010-2019 Indoor 800 7 16 15 108 Indoor 1 Mile 14 14 16 160 Indoor 3000 21 10 20 151 Indoor 5000 7 15 28 147 Indoor DMR (NCAA began 1994) NA 0 10 115 Outdoor 800 21 17 23 55 Outdoor 1500 12 15 35 121 Outdoor 3000SC (NCAA began 2001) 30 84 Outdoor 5000 50 10 37 198 Outdoor 10,000 20 8 20 74 Where did the performances take place? This listing is taking all the performances on the rankings and finding out which facility was listed most. Are there certain tracks that just naturally produce high level marks? Of course, this is somewhat misleading given only a few facilities host NCAA’s, and we would assume athletes would produce their best performances at the championship. But Iowa State, Stanford, Washington, Notre Dame, Mt. SAC, and Boston University do not host NCAA Championships so their record of top-level performances is impressive.

This year’s field includes reigning USATF marathon national champions Emma Bates and Brogan Austin, and five U.S. women with personal records (PRs) faster than 2:30 (including two of the top 10 fastest women in U.S. history). “This year’s elite field highlights an exciting resurgence we are seeing in American distance running right now,” said Bank of America Chicago Marathon Executive Race Director Carey Pinkowski. “We have a deep pool of American runners who are coming to Chicago to run fast, and we cannot wait to welcome them in the fall. We could see new American records and a lot of personal bests in October.” American women’s field With a PR of 2:20:57, Hasay leads this year’s field as the second-fastest American woman in history and the fastest to ever run the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Hasay hopes to put Deena Kastor’s long-standing American record, 2:19:36, in jeopardy. But Hasay’s primary competitor won’t be the clock alone – Amy Cragg, Emma Bates, Stephanie Bruce, Lindsay Flanagan and Taylor Ward represent a strong contingent of U.S.

  • Indoor Track and Field DIVISION I Women’S
    Indoor Track and Field DIVISION I WOMEN’S Highlights Lady Vols show world-class distance dominance: Tennessee dominated Division I women’s indoor track March 13-14 – and dominated the world for more than 10 minutes. The Lady Vols captured the school’s second team title in five years at the Division I Women’s Indoor Track and Field Championships and won two events during competition at Texas A&M – including a victory in world-record time in the distance medley relay. Tennessee’s time of 10 minutes, 50.98 seconds, in that event sliced more than three seconds off Villanova’s 21-year-old world mark in the 1,200-/400-/800-/1,600-meter medley, and eight seconds off UCLA’s 2002 meet record. The relay squad was anchored for the second straight year by Sarah Bowman, who figured in both Lady Vols’ event titles and collected a second meet record when she out- leaned Texas Tech’s Sally Kipyego to win the mile run. “Oh, my gosh, look at what we’ve done this weekend,” said Bowman, who also was a member of the 2005 indoor championship team. “I couldn’t ask for a sweeter weekend my senior year. I can’t even put it into words. It’s so amazing. “The heart that this team has, I could actually tear up just talking about them. Just to be out here with these girls who are putting their hearts on the line for the team, and it makes you want to do it all the more. It’s awesome to be part of a team like that.” Tennessee coach J.J.
