Lowdon Track and Field Complex
The Lowdon Track and Field Complex is located on the southwest corner of the TCU campus and serves as the backdrop to the southwest entry. The track was named as an "Outstanding" Track Complex by the United States Tennis Court and Track Builders Association in 2000.
This all-purpose facility, which allows the TCU track and field program to take on the nation's finest collegiate competition on its home turf, was made possible by the generosity of long-time TCU supporters Robert and Maria Lowdon.
The facility was officially dedicated October 25, 1999, and boasts the fastest running surface available today, an all-weather Rekortan track that gives TCU's already phenomenal sprints program the chance to post even faster times.
The most visible long-term impact on the program may have been the addition of an outstanding area for throwing and jumping events.
It has enabled TCU to pursue excellence in the field events and afforded the chance for the Horned Frogs to add to a rich heritage built primarily on sprinting greatness.
