"The man who put UM on the world track-and-field map, Dick Doyle ’52, has been honored by his daughter, Deborah Doyle McWhinney ’77 of Tiburon, California, with a gift toward the renovation and equipping of the athletics facility at Dornblaser Stadium.

A discus star during his student days, Doyle was an NCAA discus champion in 1950, track and field All-American in 1950 and 1951, and AAU national discus champion in 1951."

AUSTIN, Texas – Montana’s Brandon Forson erased Dick Doyle’s name from the UM record book with a discus throw of 177 feet, 9 inches Friday afternoon at the NCAA West Regional.

Forson’s throw surpassed Doyle’s mark of 175-6.5 from the 1951 AAU national championships in Minneapolis.

“That was a great moment for Brandon,” UM track and field coach Brian Schweyen said. “It’s a huge step forward for his confidence and really just the tip of the iceberg as far as what he’s capable of.”

I can only find one team championship, short of football, at a sanctioned level such as is played now-NCAA etc.
examples -- NAIA, NCAA 1 / 11 / or 111 ...
