Shippensburg's projected lineup includes eight runners who have competed at the PSAC Championships in the past and four runners who are expected to make their league debut. Among the most experienced Raiders is Brennan Wellock, who will be running in his fourth conference meet. Kyle Baker, Tommy Crum Jr., Jackson Gutekunst and Ramon Urena will be running in their third league meet.
 
The team championship race figures to be a battle between Shippensburg and West Chester. The Golden Rams and Raiders went head-to-head this season in the 'Gold' race at the Paul Short Run, and it was WCU that emerged ahead of SU by three places in the standings on that hot and muggy day in early October.
 
Per the latest edition of the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Atlantic Region rankings, Shippensburg sits third, while West Chester sits fourth. Both teams trail Charleston from the Mountain East Conference (MEC) and Fayetteville State from the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA). Kutztown, Edinboro and Slippery Rock are consecutively ranked eighth through 10th in the region.
 
Shippensburg is seeking its fourth straight conference championship (seventh overall), and its seventh straight trophy (Top 2) finish. Since 1978 (a 47-year span), SU has finished first or second in the league standings 26 times.
 
West Chester is seeking its first conference championship since 1971; a victory would be its ninth overall league crown. The Golden Rams finished fourth last season and ninth two years ago.
 
The individual race figures to be a good competition as well. A pair of Golden Rams – senior Josh Miller (5th in 2025, 23rd in 2023) and junior Matt Remishofski (23rd in 2025, 29th in 2024) – figure to be in a tight battle with Crum Jr. Those three runners currently pace the PSAC per the USTFCCCA's new XCRI-26A algorithm (read more about the XCRI here).
 
Golden Ram freshman Kyle Tracey, fresh off a second-place finish at Lock Haven two weeks ago, is among the other runners seeking to make an impact in the race for the individual championship. Others to watch include Edinboro sophomore Ralph Antonucci (21st in 2025), Kutztown senior Robby Lloyd (19th in 2025, 28th in 2024, 32nd in 2023), Lock Haven senior Jakob Rager (12th in 2025, 10th in 2024, 25th in 2023), and Slippery Rock juniors Easton Adamczyk (61st in 2025, 81st in 2024) and Eli Schreiber (30th in 2025, 54th in 2024).
 
It is the first time that the PSAC Cross Country Championships have been held at Bloomsburg since 2023 – the first year of Shippensburg's current streak of league titles.
