USA Cycling is proud to announce the return of the Collegiate All-Star Program, a development opportunity that recognizes top athletes and offers them the chance to compete with a composite team in a prestigious U.S. stage race with elite-level support from USA Cycling.
Collegiate racing is a key part of the athlete pathway in the U.S., and the All-Star Program offers student-athletes the chance to compete in an elite setting. The selected 2026 Collegiate All-Star athletes earned standout results during their 2025 USA Cycling Collegiate Season. Selected athletes are among the top performers in collegiate cycling and have shown strong results, teamwork, and leadership.
This year, the Collegiate All-Star athletes will race as composite men’s and women’s teams at the Redlands Bicycle Classic, bringing together varsity and club riders. Teams will be supported by a dedicated crew of directors, soigneurs, mechanics, and other support staff throughout the week.
“Collegiate cycling plays a critical role in athlete development in the United States,” said Vanessa Drummond, Collegiate Manager at USA Cycling. “The Collegiate All-Star Program brings together top student-athletes from both club and varsity programs to race as one team while gaining experience in elite level competition that can open new opportunities for their future.”
“Bringing this program back is about creating real opportunities,” said Eric Bennett, Director of Membership at USA Cycling. “Collegiate athletes are already performing at a high level, and the All-Star Program helps connect collegiate racing to elite competition through meaningful, high visibility events where development happens.”
