Built in the early 1930s, the track has been home to several All-Americans, national champions, national record-holders and Olympians. Named after UTEP professor and athletic booster John W. Kidd, the facility was shared with the UTEP football team until 1962, when it became sole home to the track and field team. 

The track features an eight-lane Mondo Track, the same surface used for the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, offices, locker room and a student-athlete lounge. The lit facility also houses throws and jumps arenas, making Kidd Field one of the top track-only complexes in the country. The state-of-the-art Daktronics 9x15-foot LED video display plants fans right into the action, providing graphics and video elements that display real-time highlights throughout a meet.
