The rules just changed

Nobody tells you what it actually takes.

So you guess. You email the twenty schools you've heard of — the same twenty every other athlete is emailing — and a shotgun list of sixty programs burns the one senior year you get.

roster cap

in track and cross country under the House settlement. Fewer spots than ever, and no room to gamble.

Under the House settlement, track rosters at Power-conference and opt-in Division I programs are capped at about 45 athletes (fewer in the SEC) and cross country at 17. Those coaches have fewer spots and little room for speculative recruits — so targeting the programs where your marks, event, and timing actually line up isn't a nice-to-have anymore. It's the whole game.

Chiara Dailey winning at the finish tape
Why we built it

We ran this gauntlet ourselves.

Adam's daughter Chiara was top 2–3 in her class nationally. She still had to reach out to most programs herself — and he had 25 years in sports marketing, a network of college coaches, and a head-coaching job of his own. He pieced the process together the hard way. She signed with Stanford and closed a HOKA NIL deal.

“We’ve had a couple of our own kids come out top 2–3 nationally — and even they had to reach out to most programs themselves. We figured it out in the end. No family should have to run that gauntlet blind.”

Trackbeast is that same system — the data, the process, the playbook — built with Eric Avila, 2× Olympic Trials finalist and USATF mile champion, so every family can run it — not just the ones with a coach for a dad.

Frequently asked questions

Most high school runners apply to college programs blind — with no clear sense of where their marks make them competitive, what a program actually needs, or how NIL works in their state. Trackbeast replaces that guesswork with a database of 985 college programs across D1, D2, D3 & NAIA, covering coaches, rosters, conference standings, athletics budgets, and the marks it takes to compete.

What is Trackbeast?›

Trackbeast is a recruiting intelligence platform for high school track & field and cross country athletes and their families. It pairs a database of 985 college programs across every division (344 in NCAA Division I) with state-by-state NIL guidance and marks-based matching, so families can find the college programs where an athlete’s times and distances actually fit.

How do I find college track & field programs that fit my marks?›

Use the Trackbeast college database to filter Division I programs by conference, state, roster size, and athletics budget, and compare your personal records against each program’s performance marks. It shows where you’d be competitive rather than guessing at reach or safety schools.

Is Trackbeast free?›

Yes — the program database and the NIL Flow resource are free to explore. Paid memberships (from $49/month) add marks-based program matching, advisor access, and recruiting tools.

Does Trackbeast cover NIL for high school runners?›

Yes. The NIL Flow section covers high school NIL rules for all 50 states, a curated database of real track & field NIL deals, deal-value benchmarks, a parent playbook on eligibility and taxes, and how the college revenue-sharing era affects runners.

Which programs and divisions does Trackbeast cover?›

Trackbeast’s core database covers 985 programs across every division — including 344 in NCAA Division I — with coaches, rosters, conference standings, athletics budgets, and top performance marks. Cross country and every track event group (sprints, distance, hurdles, jumps, throws, multis) are included.
