SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. – The Shippensburg University women's indoor track & field team travels to Lehigh University this weekend for the 2026 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Indoor Track & Field Championships, which will be held Saturday and Sunday at Rauch Fieldhouse.
Meet information, including ticket information and an event schedule, is available at the championships home page linked above.
This is the third consecutive season and the fourth time overall that the PSAC Indoor Track & Field Championships are being held at Lehigh. The inaugural PSAC indoor championship meet was also held at Rauch Fieldhouse in 2002.
Shippensburg enters the championships with 24 individuals spanning a total of 30 individual entries.
Of the Raiders set to compete, 16 of the individual entries are Top 8 seeds (compared to 21 last year and 33 in 2024).
The Top 8 finishers in each event will be point scorers toward the team totals.
The Raiders have taken home a red trophy as the league runner-up in back-to-back seasons. SU has won nine PSAC Championships in history, with the most recent coming in 2023. Slippery Rock, the projected favorite entering the meet, is seeking its ninth PSAC Championship to equal the Raiders for the most by a school in league history.
