Harrisburg and St. Mary’s College are knotted at the top of the poll, each program receiving a pair of top votes. The Seahawks took home the team title in 2025, their second-straight season earning the trophy. St. Mary’s College’s distance runners already proved they are in good shape as they captured the women’s cross country title in the Fall. They will be aided by Rocksann Smith, who returns as the reigning Rookie and Field Athlete of the Year.
Harrisburg’s women’s program has made big strides under the tutelage of Head Coach Ryan Hart. His top returner, Destiny Samuels, picked up a gold in the 400m and a silver in the 800m a year ago. The Lion’s distance roster has also improved as cross country Rookie of the Year, MaKayla Reichel, will look to continue her success into the indoor season.
Lancaster Bible also collected a first place vote after finishing second in the team standings last season. Martha Weaver returns as the reigning weight throw gold medalist as does Abby Ames, who picked up a gold in the 3K.
This year’s United East Championship will be held on February 27 back at the Prince George’s Sports and Learning Complex.
