St. Thomas enters the MIAC Championships with the goal of capturing their 23rd title in the 26th year of the MIAC Women's Outdoor Track & Field Championships. Gustavus, Concordia, and Saint Mary's all have talented athletes on their respective rosters and should have a chance to challenge the Tommies for the top spot. Concordia is the only team other than St. Thomas to win a MIAC Outdoor title since St. Olaf won in 1984. The Cobbers won titles in 1999 and most recently in 2004. Carleton, St. Olaf and Macalester will look to strong senior leadership to help propel them higher in the conference standings. While Saint Benedict, Hamline, and Bethel also feature talented individuals who could help each of their teams improve upon last season. Augsburg and St. Catherine each have young rosters and will look to surprise some teams at this year's conference championships.

The 2007 MIAC Women's Outdoor Track & Field Championship will be held May 11-12, at Saint John's University's Clemens Stadium in Collegeville, Minn. Running in conjunction with the MIAC Men's Championship, the meet will feature both track and field events Friday evening and Saturday morning and afternoon. The MIAC Heptathlon will be held May 3-4 at Carleton College in Northfield, Minn.
