WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue Outdoor Track & Field's 19 individual entries, along with three relays, earn a spot in the NCAA East First Round May 28-31 in Jacksonville, Fla.
The men's team qualified 12 individual athletes, along with two relay teams, while the women's team qualified five athletes individually with one relay team.
The top 48 individual and top 24 relays are accepted to each of the East and West First Round competitions. The top 12 individual and top 12 relay performances at each First Round site will qualify for the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
Decathlon and heptathlon are not competed at the NCAA First Round sites. Athletes in the top 24 after conference championships weekend are accepted directly to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. As a result, Andreas Hantson is set to qualify for the championships in the decathlon.
Cameron Miller and Antoine Spencer both headline Purdue's 2025 entries with spots in the 200m, 4x100m and 4x400m relays. Miller's No. 2 regional ranking in the 200m is the highest by a Boilermaker.
The men's 4x400m (seventh), 4x100m (10th) and Caleb Williams in the 3000m Steeplechase (12th) all head to Jacksonville with top 12 regional rankings.
Zoe Sullivan leads the women's team with a No. 17 ranking in the 100mH. She looks to qualify for her first NCAA Outdoor Championships after qualifying for the NCAA Indoor Championships and earning Second Team All-American honors.
Douglas Buckeridge (10,000m and 3000m steeplechase) and Payne Turney (5000m and 10,000m) are the only two Boilermakers set to compete in multiple individual events.
Boilermakers who qualify for the NCAA Outdoor Championships will compete June 11-14 in Eugene, Ore.
