# Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets track and field

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets track and field team is the track and field program that represents Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The team is based in Atlanta, Georgia at the George C. Griffin Track and Field Facility.
The program is coached by Grover Hinsdale (men) and Alan Drosky (women). The track and field program officially encompasses four teams, as the NCAA regards men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.
Sprinter Derek Mills has the most NCAA championship titles of any Yellow Jacket, with three 4 × 400 m championships and one individual 400 m win.
