River States Conference - Cross Country

The River States Conference (RSC) sponsors NAIA men's and women's cross country for its member institutions. The conference does not require a regular-season league schedule in cross country; the championship meet determines the conference titles and provides the postseason pathway. The 2025 championships were hosted by the University of Rio Grande in Rio Grande, Ohio, where Rio Grande won the men's and women's team titles. The 2026 RSC championships are scheduled for 7 November at the LaVern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course in Terre Haute, Indiana. The conference publishes championship sites, sport bylaws, standings, news, previews and postseason information through its official website.
