The R.V. Christian Track Complex was recently updated and is regarded as one of the best training facilities in the Midwest for both track and field. The new $1.4 million complex includes an 8-lane Rekortan surface and a 110-meter incline/decline sprint lane. The newest addition to the complex is the men's and women's locker room and team room in the northeast corner of the stadium.

R.V. Christian Track Complex was put to the test in 2005, as it was the site of the Big 12 Outdoor Track and Field Championships. It was the first Big 12 Conference meet held in Manhattan and first outdoor conference championship since the Big Eight Championships in 1985. Over the course of the three day meet, 14 facility records were broken.

The 3,000 seats on the west side of the facility is the only feature that remains from the construction of the original complex in 1973. A substantial contribution from the estate of Dr. R.V. Christian, a 1911 graduate of the College of Veterinary Medicine, made the first facility possible.
