NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships – Men's discus throw
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
This is a list of the NCAA outdoor champions in the discus throw. Measurement was conducted in imperial distances (feet and inches) until 1975. Metrication occurred in 1976, so all subsequent championships were measured in metric distances.
