TEMPE — USA Triathlon has announced Arizona State University as the host institution for the 2026 Women’s Collegiate Triathlon National Championships set for November 8, 2026, in Tempe, Arizona. The race will feature all three NCAA Divisions and take place at Tempe Town Lake.

ASU is no stranger to this event, having hosted the National Championships seven times before in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2025. The Sun Devils were crowned National Champions in the first six of those seven years.

Head Coach Cliff English praised the opportunity that awaits the university, "We are incredibly excited to host the 2026 Triathlon Collegiate National Championships again after the race returned to Tempe in 2025. We are looking forward to putting on an incredible event once again and looking to make it a special day for every competitor!"

Sunday will begin with an age group race in the morning, and will be followed by three waves of intercollegiate racing to determine the Division I, II and III National Champions. Waves, however, will be seeded by times and will not be specific to each division. 

The full course, time, and registration information will be announced at a later date.
