The Valparaiso University track & field program has announced its 2025-2026 indoor schedule, and local supporters will have plenty of opportunities to watch the team in person as part of a slate that keeps the squad close to home.
 
Valpo will start the season at Notre Dame's Blue & Gold Invite (Dec. 5), the first of three meets hosted by the Fighting Irish in which the Beacons will participate. They will also make the quick trip to the South Bend area for the Notre Dame Invite (Jan. 24) and Meyo Invitational (Jan. 30-31).
 
Valpo will compete in a meet hosted by a Missouri Valley Conference compatriot when the Beacons head to Indiana State's John Gartland Invitational (Dec. 12-13) for the second of two pre-Christmas meets. Only the multis athletes will compete in that meet at Indiana State. In February, the team will travel west for back-to-back meets hosted at Gately Complex in Chicago, first Wisconsin's Windy City Invite (Feb. 6-7), and then DePaul's Blue Demon Alumni Classic (Feb. 13).
 
The indoor slate will culminate with the Missouri Valley Conference Indoor Championships (March 1-2), which have a new home after a four-year run of Valpo co-hosting at Gately in Chicago. This year, the Championships will be held at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis.
