Indianapolis enters the season looking to defend its GLVC indoor crown after capturing the program's seventh conference championship last season. The Greyhounds also sent four athletes to the NCAA Division II Indoor National Championships and return a pair of two-time national champions in Josue Le Cadre and Alex Meyer.
Quincy will look to continue making strides under fourth-year head coach Doug Savage.
The Hawks finished 10th out of 12 teams at last season's GLVC Indoor Championships and will look to build on that performance throughout the 2026-27 indoor campaign.
QU's complete indoor schedule will be released in the coming weeks.
