IONA GAELS MEN'S CROSS COUNTRY

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Situated in New Rochelle, New York, Iona University fields a cross country program within a Catholic institution founded in 1940 with an enrollment of 4,041 students. The Gaels compete in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, a conference that draws programs from across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. Iona's cross country team trains year-round for the fall season, competing over the 5K distance that defines collegiate men's cross country racing.

The program operates under the oversight of Iona's coaching staff, who work with a roster of distance runners aiming to contend within MAAC conference competition. Like other Mid-Atlantic Division I programs, Iona's runners focus on preparation during the summer months before competing in meets that span September through November, culminating in the MAAC Championship and potentially NCAA Regional qualifying races. The team's home training ground provides the foundation for developing competitive endurance athletes who represent the university at intra-conference and regional competitions throughout the Northeast's competitive cross country circuit.
