Clarksville, TN – Austin Peay State University men’s cross country team, fresh off its first team victory since 2011, travels to Evansville, Indiana, to take part in the UE Cross Country Invitational, 11:00am, Saturday, at Angel Mounds State Historic Site.
The Governors seek to build on a successful performance at the JSU Foothills Invitational where they finished with 47 points to bring home the title, outpacing OVC rivals UT Martin and Jacksonville State.
“We’ve definitely picked up a little momentum over the past three of four weeks,” said head coach Doug Molnar. “We are getting ready to peak, and this race is one more step towards conference.”
