Track & Field Set for Indoor Season-Opening Weekend

Opens in a new window Bison Opener Schedule

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – The Penn State track & field team begins its indoor slate with the Bison Opener on Friday, December 1 and Saturday, December 2. A pair of Nittany Lions will travel to Boston for the Sharon Colyear-Danville Season Opener on Saturday as well.
 
The Nittany Lions are set to begin their 2023-24 indoor season carrying over excellent momentum from their previous campaigns. Penn State returns three All-Americans from last year's track & field roster and just completed its most successful cross country campaign since 2019.
 
While the men's squad will not begin competition this weekend, the women's team will seek to set the tone early for Penn State's 2023-24 track & field group. Head Coach John Gondak will enter veterans and newcomers alike into Penn State's season-opening meets this weekend as he begins his tenth season at the helm of the Nittany Lions' track & field program.
