NORMAN - The Oklahoma men's and women's track and field teams are set to compete in the 2022 Big 12 Indoor Track and Field Championships on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 25-26, in Ames, Iowa.

"The simple answer is to win," said head coach Tim Langford. "Win any and every event we can. Score in every event possible with as many people possible. The path to success, visibility, and relevance begins with recruiting, development and execution. The only part of the season that really matters is the conference championship and beyond. Every group, every athlete has the same goal, the pursuit of success."

The meet is scheduled to begin with multi-competition events at 10 a.m. CT on Friday. Both field and running events will get going at 3 p.m. Friday's action is expected to conclude at 8:30 p.m. Day two will pick up with multi events at 11 a.m., while field events will begin at noon. Action on the track will begin at 1:30 p.m. with the two-day meet scheduled to conclude at 5:25 p.m. Awards will begin at 6 p.m. The Sooners have 50 athletes slated to compete.

The conference championship will be live streamed starting at 10 a.m. on Friday via Big 12 NOW on ESPN+. Live results can be found on PT Timing .
