Lisa Ford set numerous NCAA qualifying marks in the Indoor 55m and 200m events, as well as the Outdoor 100m and 200m events during a lustrous four-year career at TCU. Her speed on the track would eventually lead her to earning All-American honors in the Indoor 200m in 1988.
 
Ford set the Indoor 200m school record with a time of 24.03 in 1988, and the record remained for nearly 10 years before it was broken by Giesla Jackson in 1998 (23.57). She also established the school record in the Indoor 55m event with a time of 6.91 seconds that year – a time that still ranks seventh-fastest in school history today.
 
Ford set the school record in the Outdoor 200m event with a time of 23.01 in 1988 – a mark that was eventually broken by TCU Hall of Famer Beverly McDonald in 1993 (22.67).
 
She was a track & field Team MVP and was also named the school's Athlete of the Year.
 
At the time of her induction, Ford became the eighth women's track & field inductee into the TCU Hall of Fame.
