The men's team enters the season as last year's Southland Conference Champions after defeating the competition in dominant fashion. The returners are highlighted by three all-conference selections from last year's squad: Kevin Hernandez (First Team All-Conference), Anthony Zapata (First Team All-Conference), Bryan Mileski (Second Team All-Conference), and Jared Laverty (Second Team All-Conference).  

The women's side features a new look that includes four freshmen. Vera Yohanna-Maisaje returns for her sophomore season after earning Second Team All-Conference honors as a freshman last season.   

The men's team is looking for its fifth first-place finish in a row at the Twilight, while the women's side also looks for its fifth first-place finish. Both Cardinal men and women own the course record. Griffin Neal (2022) holds the men's course record, while Abby Gray (2021) has the women's course record.
