WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — William & Mary Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Alex Heacock '09 announced a strong indoor schedule for the 2025-26 season.

The Tribe starts the indoor campaign at a trio of meets in December. The program's pentathlon and heptathlon athletes will travel to the Liberty Kickoff in Lynchburg, Va., on Dec. 4-5 for the second year in a row. W&M will send distance runners to compete in the Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener hosted by Boston University. The Tribe will also send competitors to the Navy Indoor Invitational once again on Dec. 6.
 
Following the exam and holiday break, W&M resumes competition on Jan. 16-17 at North Carolina's Dick Taylor Carolina Challenge. The next week, the Green and Gold stays in-state, traveling to compete at the Hokie Invitational in Blacksburg, Va. from Jan. 23-24.
 
The Tribe wraps up the month of January at the Penn State National Open, Jan. 30-31. It marks the Green and Gold's first appearance in the event since 2023.
