WAKE FOREST WAKE FOREST WOMEN'S CROSS COUNTRY
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Wake Forest's women's cross country program competes within the Atlantic Coast Conference, one of college sports' most rigorous athletic conferences, representing a university established in 1834 with an enrollment of 9,121 students in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The Demon Deacons operate within a Division I-FBS institutional framework, placing them among the nation's most competitive athletic programs across all sports. The ACC's cross country landscape demands high-caliber performances from athletes across distances that test both aerobic capacity and mental resilience.
The program's fall season schedule exposes athletes to the demanding regional and conference competition that defines ACC distance running.

Women representing the Demon Deacons navigate courses throughout the Southeast while competing against programs with established national rankings and recruiting pipelines that consistently produce All-American performers.
Competing as part of Wake Forest's comprehensive Division I athletic department, the women's cross country team maintains the institutional support and resources necessary to develop elite distance runners. The program's roster includes athletes training year-round under coaching staff dedicated to advancing both individual achievements and team success within ACC competition.
