INDIANAPOLIS - The Marian cycling team is set to compete this weekend at the annual BMX Collegiate Nationals, hosted once again in West Monroe, Louisiana. The Knights are the defending team champion in the collegiate nationals. 

Marian will arrive in Louisiana on Thursday this week, and head to the track on Friday as they warm up for the competition with the USA BMX Event. 

Collegiate nationals will then race on Saturday and Sunday, with all action taking place at the Ike Hamilton Expo Center. The Knights will take the two-time defending national champion to West Monroe, as Cameron Wing will look to defend his crown at the Cajun Nationals.

The USA Cycling organization does not recognize BMX as a collegiate omnium discipline, and this weekend's national championship event will not affect the Knights' standing. Marian is currently in second in the collegiate omnium through the first three disciplines of the year. 

Marian's roster for collegiate nationals is below. The Knights compete for a National Championship on March 21 and 22.
