BRIDGEWATER, N.J. — Wagner's men's indoor track & field squad has been picked to finish second in the NEC for the 2025-2026 campaign, receiving one first-place vote.
Reigning champion CCSU has been picked to win the conference after winning the title last season, with Wagner coming second and scoring 140 team points. The Seahawks took home five individual golds from that championship meet, with 14 podium finishes.
Prior to coming second for the 2024-2025 season, Wagner was on a four-game title streak and looks to return to that dominance, returning its four individual champions from last indoor season — two-time winner senior Alex Taddeo, senior Julio Martinez and senior Christopher Milillo.
The Seahawks open up their season on Saturday, Dec. 6 at the Youree Spence-Garcia Invitational, hosted by St. John's at the Ocean Breeze Track & Field Athletic Complex.
