SEATTLE – Just two weeks removed from the NCAA Cross Country Championship, it's already time to kick off the 2025-26 indoor track & field season. A dozen Dawg distance runners are set to start the new season in Boston at the Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener, Saturday morning, Dec. 6.
Saturday's meet at the BU Track & Tennis Center has become renowned for very fast distance times as runners have stayed in peak fitness from the cross country season and look to run early season qualifying marks for NCAA Indoor Nationals which are still four months away in March.
The meet in Boston will be one of two early season previews for the Huskies this indoor season. Next Saturday, Dec. 13, another group will travel to Spokane for the Spokane Invitational at The Podium. Then it will be a month-long break before UW gets going again with the home opener in the Dempsey, the UW Preview, on Jan. 16-17.
Saturday's first events go early, prior to 7 a.m. Pacific time, but the first Huskies will not compete until a little later in the day. The first Husky on the track will be Mia Cochran in the open women's 3,000-meter heats which begin at 9:55 a.m. Pacific
Five UW men will be in the open 3,000-meter heats that start at 10:40 a.m. PT. Slated to run are Tyler Bilyard, Thom Diamond, Nathan Neil, and freshmen Owen Powell and Josiah Tostenson. It would be the UW debuts for Bilyard and Powell.
Another debut from freshman Chloe Symon is slated for 12 noon with the elite 800-meters. Jenica Swartz is entered in the mile at 12:12 p.m. PT. All-American Chloe Foerster is set to race the elite 3k section at 12:28 p.m. followed by senior transfer Chloe Thomas in the elite 5k at 12:55 p.m. Thomas just took second at the Canadian Cross Country Championships last weekend to qualify for Cross Country Worlds.
Wrapping things up will be Julia David-Smith in the open 5,000-meter heats which begin at 1:30 p.m. PT.
