The 2002 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships was organised by USA Track & Field and held from June 21 to 23 at the Cobb Track & Angell Field in Palo Alto, California. The three-day competition served as the national championships in track and field for the United States. The same facility would host this meet the following year, but this was the last year to use the three day format as the four-day format was adopted in 2003. The combined track and field events were contested at Edwards Stadium in Berkeley, California in the two days preceding the start of the main programme.2002 USA Outdoor Combined Events Championships https://web.archive.org/web/20160305080959/http://www.usatf.org/events/2002/USAOutdoorCombinedChampionships/ 2016-03-05 .
