BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana cross country head coach Eric Heins announces the Hoosiers' 2024 cross country schedule including one home meet at the Sam Bell Cross Country Course and three races on the road.
 
"I am excited about the competitive level of this schedule," Heins said. "I believe it sets both teams up to see a variety of courses as well as competition from all over the country, all while staying relatively close to home. Year in and year out, our team goals are to be competing for a B1G team title and qualifying for the national championships. This schedule prepares us for both of those goals."
 
The Hoosiers will begin their season on Aug. 30th with the Sam Bell Invitational. This is the first home race under Heins and the first since the 2022 season.
Indiana will travel to their first away meet with the Fighting Illini Big Ten Preview at the University of Illinois' Blue Golf Course on Sept. 13th.
 
The Hoosiers will take a few weeks off for training before heading to the Sean Earl Lakefront Invitational in Chicago, Ill. on Oct. 4th.
 
Up next, the cream and crimson will gear up for the postseason as they close out the regular season with the Wisconsin Pre-Nationals meet at the Thomas Zimmerman Championship Cross Country Course in Madison, Wis.
The University of Illinois will host the Big Ten Championships on Nov. 1st at the Orange and Blue Golf Course in Savoy, Ill.
 
Following the conference championships, the NCAA Great Lakes Regional will be held in Norton, Ohio, at the Silver Creek Cross Country Course on Nov. 15th.
 
The 2024 NCAA Championships are set in Madison, Wis., again at the Thomas Zimmerman Championship Course on Nov. 23rd.
