The UT Tower will shine with burnt orange lights and “1” on its sides on Wednesday, March 23 to celebrate Texas Track and Field winning the 2022 Division I men’s indoor track and field championship.

The Longhorns clinched the win by beating North Carolina A&T in the 4×400 meter relay, the championship’s final event. In total, the Longhorns scored 47 points on its way to the title. It is Texas’ first men’s indoor team championship.

The special Tower lighting will take place as the team gathers in front of the Tower to take a picture. Per campus tradition, the Tower is bathed in burnt orange lighting from top to bottom and displayed the number “1” on its sides when an athletics team wins a national championship.
