The Sam Houston Bearkats track and field team is the track and field program that represents Sam Houston State University. The Bearkats compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Conference USA. The team is based in Huntsville, Texas, at the Meredith & Miriam York Track & Field Complex.
The program is coached by David Self. The track and field program officially encompasses four teams because the NCAA considers men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.
Pole vaulter Clayton Fritsch became the program's most successful athlete at the NCAA level, finishing runner-up at the 2022 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
Postseason , a total of 4 men and 6 women have achieved individual first-team All-American status for the team at the Division I men's outdoor, women's outdoor, men's indoor, or women's indoor national championships (using the modern criteria of top-8 placing regardless of athlete nationality).
