Northwestern Wildcats track and field

The Northwestern Wildcats track and field team was the track and field program that represented Northwestern University. The Wildcats competed in NCAA Division I as a member of the Big Ten Conference. The team was based in Evanston, Illinois at the Ryan Field.

The track and field and cross country teams were dropped by Northwestern University following the 1987-88 seasons. Both the men's and women's programs were coached by Mike Muska until the year before they were discontinued. The track and field program officially encompassed four teams because the NCAA considers men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.

12 individual national titles were won by Wildcat athletes, including two that won three NCAA national titles each. Jim Golliday won titles in the 100 m and 200 m, while Tom Warne won three pole vault titles.
