The Missouri State Bears and Lady Bears track and field teams are the track and field programs that represents Missouri State University. The Bears and Lady Bears compete in NCAA Division I as a member of the Conference USA. The teams are based in Springfield, Missouri, at the Betty & Bobby Allison South Stadium.
The program is coached by Jordan Fife. The track and field program officially encompasses multiple teams because the NCAA considers men's and women's indoor track and field and outdoor track and field as separate sports.
The Bears men's teams were cut in 2006 following the outdoor track and field season, leaving only the women's teams since then. The cuts were announced in December 2005 as part of an initiative to save US$350,000 to $500,000.
Heptathlete Tracy Partain is the program's highest finisher at the NCAA championships, placing runner-up at the 2006 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
The Lady Bears have had five AIAW All-Americans finishing in the top six at the AIAW indoor or outdoor championships.
, a total of 2 men and 4 women have achieved individual first-team All-American status for the team at the Division I men's outdoor, women's outdoor, men's indoor, or women's indoor national championships (using the modern criteria of top-8 placing regardless of athlete nationality).
