INDIANAPOLIS - The IU Indianapolis women's cross country program and Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Antonio McDaniel announced the program's 2025 fall schedule, featuring all six meets inside the Hoosier State. The Jaguars are expected to open the season with a home meet at Northview Church in Carmel, Ind., followed by trips to Fort Wayne, South Bend and Evansville in the regular season. The postseason will include the Horizon League Championships in Fort Wayne and NCAA Great Lakes Regional Championships in Evansville. 

The Jaguars will return to the familiar and popular Northview Church course on Aug. 29 for this year's opener, followed by a trip to the Mastodon Open, site of the 2025 #HLXC Championships, on Sept. 20. IU Indy will then compete in the always competitive Notre Dame Joe Piane Invitational on Oct. 3 before capping the regular season at the Angel Mounds Invitational in Evansville on Oct. 17. 

The Horizon League Championships are slated for Nov. 1 in Fort Wayne, followed by the NCAA Great Lakes Regional on Nov. 14. 

The Jaguars are slated to return four of their top five performers from last season in Carina Alanis, Grace Bragg, Ella Colclesser and Mary Fritch. The squad will also be bolstered by the addition of transfer Brooke Neal, who joined the program last spring for the track season. McDaniel has also inked a talented recruiting class that will build the program's depth and overall talent level ahead of the upcoming season. 

The full listing of signees will be announced later this summer.
