The 2014 Great Lakes Valley Conference Men's and Women's Outdoor Track & Field Championships will be take place at Lewis Stadium on the campus of Lewis University in Romeoville, Ill., May 2-3.  The 2014 event will mark the 18th year for the GLVC Outdoor Track & Field Championships.

Last season, the University of Indianapolis men’s and women’s track and field teams captured the GLVC Championship for the fourth consecutive time. 

The Greyhound men scored a 44.5-point margin of victory over runner-up Missouri S&T, outscoring the Miners 165.50-121.  Southern Indiana (107) finished third, while McKendree (105) impressed with a fourth-place finish at their first ever conference championship meet.  Host Lewis (95) was fifth, followed by Bellarmine (64.5), Saint Joseph’s (54), UW-Parkside (42), William Jewell (33), Drury (18), and Maryville (14) to round out the field.

On the women’s side, the Greyhounds accumulated 197.5 points, which were the most scored by a winning UIndy team since racking up 218 en route to the 2010 GLVC crown.  Bellarmine scored 180 points to finish second, making the 17.5-point differential the fourth-closest margin of victory in the history of the championships and the tightest gap since SIU Edwardsville topped Indianapolis, 246-230, in 2006.  Lewis (116), Saint Joseph’s (71) and Missouri S&T (66.5) rounded out the top five, while positions 6-11 consisted of Drury (43), William Jewell (39), Southern Indiana (38), McKendree (33.5), Maryville (25), UW-Parkside (9.5).
