The Capital University men's and women's outdoor track teams were picked 10th and 8th, respectively, in the 2014 OAC preseason polls. For the men, senior thrower Paul Baker and fellow senior Theron Mackey lead the field events, while senior sprinter Cory Smith and sophomore Brennen Hennings will pace the running events. The women return numerous record setters from indoor season, including freshman Ashley Freshkorn in the weight throw and freshman Jordan Lyle in the pole vault, to lead the team outdoors.
