Steve Prefontaine - Collegiate Athlete Hall of Fame 2022 Inductee

“Pre” was a chant heard among Oregon’s faithful when Steve Prefontaine arrived for warmups at Hayward Field. He delivered for fans everywhere, winning NCAA titles in all of his 3-mile/5000 performances - the first run of four straight in any single event.
Pre added three NCAA cross country titles, losing only when he was a freshman to another Hall of Famer, Gerry Lindgren. His career record includes collegiate records from 2 miles to 6 miles, setting American records along the way.
