Hutsell-Rosen Track (originally named Wilbur Hutsell Track) is an outdoor track and field facility located in

International Association of Athletics Federations Class 1-certified track and field complexes in the United States.[1]

History

After being constructed in 1970, the facility was originally named Wilbur Hutsell Track, in honor of Wilbur Hutsell, the first track coach at Auburn. After major renovations in 2006, the facility was officially renamed on April 22, 2008 to honor both Hutsell and Mel Rosen, Auburn's second track and field coach, who coached the team for 28 years. Hutsell-Rosen has hosted the Southeastern Conference Track and Field Championships five times since its construction, in 1973, 1980, 1988, 1997, and 2008.[2]
