The Terps’ season will begin on Sept. 1 at the Baltimore Metro Meet in Baltimore, Md. They will stay in the state for their next competition eight days later at the Navy Invitational, hosted by the Naval Academy in Annapolis. Maryland finished third in the Navy Invitational last season.
After three weeks off, Maryland heads to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania to compete in the Lehigh Paul Short. On Oct. 14, the team’s regular season comes to a close in Charlottesville, Virginia at the XC23 Pre-National — an opportunity to preview the course for the 2023 NCAA Championships on Nov. 18.
The Big Ten Championships will take place in Madison, Wisconsin on Oct. 27, and qualifiers will compete in the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional on Nov. 10 back in Bethlehem, Pa.
