ROCHESTER, Mich. –\u00a0The Golden Grizzlies prepare to begin their 2026 Outdoor Track and Field season, releasing their schedule to kick off the spring.<\/p>\n
Oakland looks to keep climbing the ladder in the Horizon League Outdoor Track and Field standings, where the men’s and women’s teams finished fourth last season.<\/p>\n
The spring season begins with a two-day trip to the Indiana Wesleyan Polar Bear Invite on Mar. 20-21. Oakland will then follow up with a split weekend to close out March, where two groups will be sent to different meets. Some will go to the NC State Raleigh Relays on Mar. 26-28, while others will travel to Cedarville University on Mar. 28 for a one-day meet.<\/p>\n
This will be one of three weekends where the Golden Grizzlies will be in multiple parts of the country at the same time, including a weekend trip to Tennessee (Apr. 10-11), Central Michigan (Apr. 11), and Bucknell University (Apr. 11-12). They will also have another split weekend later in the season, where the team will be spread out at the Penn Relays (Apr. 23-25), Grand Valley State (Apr. 24-25), and the Louisville Invite (Apr. 24-25).<\/p>\n
The Golden Grizzlies will also spend a significant amount of time at their home track, hosting the Golden Grizzlies Invite (Apr. 4), the Elaine Leigh Invite (Apr. 17-18), and the Horizon League Championships from May 8-10.<\/p>\n
With one of the most well-rounded teams in recent memory, featuring potential championship-caliber student-athletes across nearly every event, Oakland is poised for another successful season, beginning in just over a week.<\/p>\n
