About the Facility:
In 1999, Southern Illinois University completed a nine-lane Mondo track featuring alternating, colored lanes. McAndrew Stadium opened in 1938 and has since been the home of numerous Olympians, NCAA All-Americans and Missouri Valley Conference Track and Field champions. Also home to Hall-of-Fame coaches Lew Hartzog and Bill Cornell, a two-time outdoor Coach of the Year. The facility has also helped produce 20 MVC outdoor team champions since SIU joined the MVC in 1975. In 2001, the track was given the name Lew Hartzog Track in honor of the long-time coach that won eight MVC outdoor championships. SIU has hosted five MVC track and field championships (1990, 1991, 1994, 1997, 2003).
