Men’s Track & Field/Cross Country Announces Incoming Class of 2026

HANOVER, N.H. – The Marjorie & Herbert Chase '30 Director of Dartmouth Track & Field and Cross Country Porscha Dobson has announced the incoming Class of 2026 for the men's cross country and track & field teams.

"We're thrilled about our men's 2026 class. As we enter the 2022-2023 season, this recruiting class is our first as a new and complete coaching staff," said Dobson.

"This year, our Dartmouth men improved tremendously across event groups. They set numerous personal records and began to re-write the record books. Our incoming class will build off the momentum. As the competitive level continues to increase in the Ivy League and the NCAA, we believe our impressive group of first year student-athletes will have a significant impact on our program's success as we compete with the best. We're looking forward to everyone joining us this fall."
