Oklahoma State men's track and field will begin the 2014 indoor season as the No. 10 team in the nation, according to the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) preseason poll.

The Cowboys finished the 2013 season with four-straight appearances in the poll's top 11, peaking at No. 3.
