Without a lot of fanfare, the University of Washington released its 2018 cross country schedule late this week.

The Huskies eliminated the season opening dual meet against Seattle University Labor Day weekend, and will open September 8th with the Sundodger Invitational at Lincoln Park.

The Sundodger will be run a week earlier than normal, with teams competing to be announced.

The men’s team will head to Boston for the first time for the Battle in Beantown hosted by Boston College at Franklin Park on September 21st featuring 2017 NCAA top-25 finishers Ole Miss, Syracuse, and Virginia, along with Georgia Tech, Wake Forest, and Providence.

The women head to Stanford on September 29th for the Stanford Invitational in Stanford, where they will get an opportunity to see the course used for the Pac-12 championships a month later.

The rest of the season mirrors the schedule of previous seasons, with the Pre-Nationals meet in Madison, Wisconsin on October 12th, where the NCAA championships will be held on November 17; the Pac-12s at Stanford on October  26th; the NCAA West Regionals in Sacramento on November 9th; and the NCAA championships in Madison on November 17th.

Washington’s schedule is available here.
