The Duke Blue Devils track and field team is the track and field program that represents Duke University. The Blue Devils compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The team is based in Durham, North Carolina at the Morris Williams Track and Field Stadium.[2]

The program is coached by Shawn Wilbourn.[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]
