GLENSIDE, Pa. – The Arcadia University men's and women's cross country teams are set to open the 2026 season Saturday at the Dutchmen Invitational, hosted by Lebanon Valley College.
With Head Coach Xavier Feliciano entering his second season and first full year leading the program, the women's team welcomes three first-years to the roster in Julia Camp, Lydia Mansor and Maggie Oliver. The newcomers join sophomores Emmy Brown-Varon, Taylor Huczko, Maggie Mead and Jhane Owens, who will look to continue making significant contributions to the program. Juniors Sarah Agnew and Sarah Heffernan provide additional leadership, while seniors Bridget Jacobson and All-Conference and All-Region runner Maren Weaver will look to lead the Knights up the leader board in the MAC.
On the men's side, four first-years join the squad in Breon Barrett Jr., Alex Dodson, Jovanni Romeo and Logan Salvato. Juniors Dylan Chauhan, Jacob Covage and Landon Gentile-Adamson return for their third seasons and will look to build on their previous campaigns. Feliciano will also rely on seniors Brendan Blyth and Bryan Carroll to provide veteran leadership as the Knights look to make a push at the MAC Championship.
The Knights will compete in six meets during the 2026 season, beginning Saturday at Lebanon Valley. Following a two-week break, Arcadia will return to action at the MAC Championship course preview hosted by Stevenson University on Sept. 18. The Knights will then travel to Lehigh University for the Paul Short Invitational in early October before competing in the Border Battle hosted by Rowan University on Oct. 17.
The MAC Championship will take place Oct. 31, with the season continuing at the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional Championships at Lock Haven University on Nov. 14.
