MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Middle Tennessee has released its 2025 cross country schedule, featuring four regular season meets before hosting the Conference USA Championship in Huntsville, Alabama.
The Blue Raiders, who finished as runner-up on both the men's and women's sides at last year's CUSA Championships, return with eyes on the title in a season that includes multiple previews of the championship course.
Middle Tennessee opens the season on Aug. 30 at the Memphis Twilight, marking the program's ninth consecutive appearance at the meet.
On Sept. 12, the Blue Raiders will head to Huntsville, Ala., for the Southern Showcase — a key opportunity to race on the championship course.
The team will then compete in the Louisville Classic on Oct. 4, followed by a trip to College Station, Texas, for the Arturo Barrios Invitational on Oct. 17, hosted by Texas A&M.
The Conference USA Championship will be held on Nov. 1 in Huntsville, with MTSU serving as host.
NCAA Regionals will follow two weeks later, also in Huntsville, marking the Blue Raiders' third visit to the course this season. The NCAA National Championship will take place in Columbia, Mo., hosted by the University of Missouri.
