D2 track and field colleges?

Hi fellow runners/jumpers/throwers! I'm interested in competing in track and field at the collegiate level but I want to keep a good balance between academics and athletics. Can you share some reputable Division 2 track and field schools?

Sure, I can help you out with that! Division 2 schools offer a nice balance between competitive athletics and strong academics. Here are some notable Division 2 track and field colleges with solid academic reputations:

1. Colorado School of Mines (Golden, CO): A well-regarded engineering school with a strong track and field program.

2. Bentley University (Waltham, MA): Known for its business-focused programs, Bentley also has a competitive track and field program.

3. Rollins College (Winter Park, FL): A liberal arts college with strong programs in the humanities and social sciences, Rollins also hosts a successful track and field program.

4. Seattle Pacific University (Seattle, WA): SPU, with its solid programs in business, education, and psychology, also offers a competitive track and field program.

5. Stonehill College (Easton, MA): Located near Boston, Stonehill is a private liberal arts college with well-regarded programs and a reputable track and field team.

These are just a few examples of the many Division 2 track and field schools out there. You'll want to consider factors such as location, campus size, and academic offerings alongside the quality of their track and field programs. It's essential to visit the campuses, talk to coaches and current athletes, and research the specific programs you're interested in to find the best fit for you.

Good luck with your search, and I hope you find the perfect balance between academics and athletics at a Division 2 track and field college!
