The Big Green Look To Defend Their 2024-25 National Championship
HANOVER, N.H.—Dartmouth equestrian head coach Tenley Walsh announced the team's 2025-26 schedule as the program comes off its first NCEA Single Discipline National Championship.
The Big Green start their defense of the national championship with three meets at home in the fall before closing out the regular season with two road meets in the spring.
Dartmouth opens the season against Centenary on Sunday, Oct. 26 at Morton Farm. It will be the first time in Dartmouth's NCEA era that the Big Green and Cyclones will face each other.
On Saturday, Nov. 1 the Big Green take on Charleston in a rematch of both the 2025 ECAC Single Discipline Championship and the NCEA Single Discipline National Championship from a year ago. In 2024-25, the Big Green and Cougars faced off a total of four times with each team winning twice.
The Big Green close out the fall against Sacred Heart at Morton Farm. It will be the lone time the two teams faceoff in the regular season, last season the Big Green defeated the Pioneers twice in the regular season and once in the ECAC Single Discipline Championship.
After the winter break, Dartmouth travels to Charleston to take on the Cougars on Sunday, Feb. 15.
To close out the regular season the Big Green take on Centenary on Sunday, Mar. 1 in Long Valley, N.J.
The Big Green start the postseason on Friday, Mar. 15 at the ECAC Single Discipline Championship in Charleston, S.C. An ECAC Champion will be crowned on Saturday, Mar. 21.
