"Charlie Greene is the only man in Nebraska outdoor track and field history to win three NCAA individual titles. What event did he dominate from 1965-67?"
=================================

Answer:

100-yard dash

Greene tied the world record at 9.1 seconds in capturing one of those individual national titles (and yes it’s “100-yard” not “100-meter”)…Greene later won a bronze medal in the 100-meter dash at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics and also helped USA win the gold medal in the 4x100-meter relay.
