Emory Cross Country Teams Head To UGA Invitational

After taking a break from competition last weekend, the Emory men's and women's cross country teams resume action on Saturday when they compete at the University of Georgia Invitational.  The men's 8K begins at 8:00 a.m. and will be followed by the women's 5K at 9:00 a.m.  Both races will be held at the UGA Equestrian Complex in Bishop, GA.

Among the teams competing will be the University of Georgia, Georgia State, North Georgia and Morehouse College. 

The 18th-ranked men's team will likely sit out veterans Tommy Fyffe, Charlie Meade, Paul Winterhalter and Alex Robin with that group gearing up for next week's Griak Invitational in Minneapolis. 

The 27th-ranked women's side looks forward to continuing its momentum from its third-place performance out of 11 teams at the season-opening Sewanee Invitational on Sept. 5.  Senior Rebecca Flink paced the Emory contingent with a sixth-place showing overall in the 110-runner field.
