COACH'S QUOTE
"While our circumstances don't allow us to be in the hunt for team titles, I am confident that our men and women will compete to earn every point possible," head coach
Matt Belfield said. "All have prepared to commit their best efforts on behalf of their teammates; and we will celebrate every success we achieve. The sacrifice and dedication of our student-athletes and coaching staff is noteworthy, and it's something that I value immensely. The time is here, and these Catamounts will perform well when it counts."

Vermont competes in the America East Indoor Championships for the first time in 734 days after the cancelation of last year's championships due to the global pandemic. Several current Catamounts earned All-Conference honors in 2020 with both teams placing sixth in the conference.
