Introduced at Tech in 1904, track has had a long history at Georgia Tech. Football coach John Heisman led the team from 1904 to 1908. Charles Thomas (1908-1917) and football coach William A. Alexander (1918-1923) succeeded Heisman, leading the team to first place in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association in 1912 and Georgia State and Southeastern Amateur Athletic Union Championships in 1922. Since 1924, apart from a brief period in the late 1920s and early 1930s, four long-term coaches have taken the men's team to many successes: George C. Griffin (1924-1926 and 1933-1943), Norris Dean (1944-1964), Buddy Fowlkes (1965-1992), and Grover Hinsdale (1993- ). Georgia Tech first fielded a women's track and field team in 1986. As of this writing (February 2012), Alan Drosky, who also coaches the men's and women's cross country teams, has been head coach of the women's team since the 1995-1996 season.
