A conference-record total of 21 track & field student-athletes will represent the CAC at the 2014 NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field Championships, hosted by Ohio Wesleyan University from May 22-24.

Sixteen men and five women will travel to Delaware, Ohio for the three-day championships, beginning on Thursday. The 16 men and five women participants are the most-ever for the CAC, while the 21 total participants also sets a new conference standard for NCAA qualifying. 

On the men's side, Salisbury leads the way with four individual qualifiers. Luke Campbell (110 hurdles, 400 hurdles), Devon Hopkins (400 hurdles), Tyler Austin (200m) and Dylan Burkett (shot put) also received the nod for the Sea Gulls. Campbell is the defending national champion in the 110 hurdles and also received All-America honors in the 400 hurdles last spring. Austin is competing in the 200 for the second straight year.
