NCAA D2 Track and Field Recruiting

Fast Track Recruiting has put together a list of schools to consider if you are looking to compete at the NCAA D2 level. In finding the performance standards to compete at this level, we looked at the team performances from the past academic year in cross country, and the indoor/outdoor track and field seasons. In addition, we placed equal value on the school’s national and regional academic ranking. Below you will find a list of schools that appear on both lists.
