Eastern New Mexico University's men's and women's cross country teams have announced their schedule for the 2025 season. The Greyhounds will participate in five regular season meets before competing at the Lone Star Conference championships, which will be hosted by Dallas Baptist University (DBU).
"Ready for the upcoming year," said head coach Joshua Harden. "We will travel to some great races this season featuring tough regional competition."
The season begins on September 5 with a trip to Lawton, Oklahoma, for the Aggie Duels. This marks the second consecutive year that Eastern New Mexico has started its cross country campaign in Oklahoma.
The following week, the team is set to compete at two Division I meets: the Texas Tech Open in Lubbock, Texas on September 12, and the Lobo Cross Country Invitational in Albuquerque, New Mexico on September 13.
Next on the schedule is participation in the New Mexico Junior College Invitational at Harry McAdams Park in Hobbs, New Mexico. This will be Eastern's second straight appearance at this event hosted by New Mexico Junior College.
The final two regular-season competitions take place in Fort Worth, Texas. The first of these is the DBU Old Glory Gallop at AP Ranch on October 11.
The Lone Star Conference championship meet is scheduled for October 25. This year marks DBU's first time hosting the conference championship event.
Returning athletes from last year's men's squad include Thomas Aerdts, Alec Forney, Jackson Gable, Emmanuel Hernandez, and Brian Norton. On the women's side, Elizabeth Lujan-Towles and Valentina Rocabado Salazar return from last year's roster.
