‘Cats open campaign on August 29 at Cowboy Preview
EVANSTON, Ill. (June 4, 2025) – Piloted by seventh-year head coach Jill Miller, the Northwestern University cross country program released its schedule for the upcoming 2025 season on Wednesday. The 'Cats are set to compete in four regular-season meets before beginning postseason competition in late October.
"Our 2025 cross country schedule gives our team the opportunity to preview key championship courses and compete against some of the best programs in the country," Miller commented. "Meets like the Loyola Lakefront Invitational and Wisconsin's Nuttycombe Invitational will be great tests for us before championship season. We return a veteran group that's motivated and eager to race, and we're looking forward to seeing how we stack up against the nation's top competition."
Northwestern lifts the lid on the 2025 season on August 29 when it heads south to Stillwater, Okla., site of November's NCAA Midwest Regional, for the Cowboy Preview. Two weeks later, Miller's crew will have an early opportunity to see how it stacks up against a host of league foes at the Big Ten Preview (Sept. 12) in East Lansing, Mich.
The 'Cats will be in action close to home to begin the month of October, making the short trek down Lake Shore Drive to Montrose Harbor for the Loyola Lakefront Invitational on October 3. A final postseason tune-up awaits on October 17, as Northwestern visits Madison, Wis. for the prestigious Nuttycombe Invitational.
Postseason competition kicks off on October 31 when the Wildcats return to Michigan State University's Forest Akers East Golf Course for the Big Ten Conference Championships.
Oklahoma State University will play host to the NCAA Midwest Regional at the Greiner Family OSU Cross Country Course in Stillwater, Okla. on November 14. The University of Missouri's Gans Creek Cross Country Course is set to serve as the site of the NCAA Cross Country Championships on November 22.
