The Tulane Green Wave track and field team is the track and field program that represents Tulane University. The Green Wave compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the American Athletic Conference. The team is based in New Orleans, Louisiana at the Danny Thiel Track.[2]

The program is coached by Adrian Myers.[3] 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.[4]

Gloria Asumnu and Tharushi Karunarathna, both sprinters, are the only athletes that have represented Tulane at the Olympics, however Tulane sprinter Herman Neugass qualified for the 1936 Summer Olympics but refused to compete.[5]
