EDITORIAL: Let's move the NCAA Track Championship to other universities.

I think that the NCAA Track and Field Championships should move around the country. 

The meet has been held in Eugene, Oregon 14 times: 1962, 1964, 1972, 1978, 1984, 1991, 1996, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.

Oregon will host the NCAA outdoor track and field championships at Hayward Field through 2021.

It gives Oregon an unfair home field advantage.
