Season Preview: Men's & Women's Track & Field

Terriers Have Chance To Break School Records, Make Presence Felt In 2023-24

For the first time since 2009, men's and women's track and field is up and running at Hiram College, with the indoor season set to begin this weekend in Alliance, Ohio. The team is led by head coach Dan Graber, who recently led the Terriers cross country team to multiple personal records this past fall at the NCAC Championship and NCAA Regional Championships.

Both teams will rely heavily on their exciting young talent, with every student-athlete on both rosters entering their first season at the collegiate level. The programs will each have a chance to break a number of school records throughout the indoor and outdoor seasons, with all-conference awards also being a priority.

Hiram College has a rich history in track & field, with the 1985, 1986 and 1987 women's track & field teams all winning the Presidents Athletic Conference (PAC) Championship and recently being honored as Hiram's "Teams of Distinction" this past fall.

Between the men's and women's programs, Hiram College has had five All-Americans in its history: Les Niehaus (1976), William Edwards (1978, 1979), Bob Kujala (1996), Missy Horner (1995, 1995) and Heidi Gerhardstein (1997, 1998).

Key Meets
  • Saturday, December 9 at Toy Drive Invite: The Terriers track & field teams return for their first event since 2009 at the Toy Drive Invite hosted by Mount Union in Alliance, Ohio. Hiram looks to impress in its first event in over a decade.
  • Friday and Saturday, February 23-24 at NCAC Indoor Championships: The Terriers travel to Gambier, Ohio for the NCAC Indoor Championships. Hiram will look to post a strong performance as it closes out the indoor season.
  • Friday and Saturday, March 29-30 at Oberlin College: The Terriers open up the outdoor season in late March when they travel to take on the Oberlin Yeomen and Yeowomen. It's not only Hiram's first outdoor meet, but also its first conference meet of the 2023-24 season.
  • Friday and Saturday, May 3-4 at NCAC Outdoor Championships: The Terriers will look to cap off the long season and make the most of their hard work with a chance to win some awards at the NCAC Outdoor Championships.
Quote From Coach Graber

"We are excited to be bringing the track and field programs back to Hiram.  This will primarily be a developmental year for us with our entire team being first year track and field athletes.  With that being said, we have talented and hard-working athletes, so I expect that we will see school records go down along with having athletes that challenge for All-NCAC spots."
