STATESBORO, Ga.- The Georgia Southern cross country team will race in Chattanooga, Tenn. this Saturday, in the annual Front Runner Invitational at the Moccasin Bend Race Course. The meet is hosted by University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and is a 2-mile race, a shorter course than the ladies team normally competes.
The meet will feature a variety of schools including Division I, Division II, and Junior College programs.
Head Cross Country Coach Natalie Smith said, “We are using this meet for as a part of our speed training so I am really looking forward to seeing how the ladies compete.
The Eagles will rely on Laura Fuller (Cartersville, Ga.) placed 18th and finished first for the Lady Eagles with a time of 19:41.83. Shauntel Jennings (Stone Mountain, Ga.) finished in 19th place with a time of 19:43.89.
“UTC is always a great place to run,” said Smith. “Their course is always tough but shows good times. We are only two weeks away from our Conference Championships and I know that our team is really excited. Once again as long as we have a good gap time this week I will be happy because that is what it takes to do well as a team.”
The meet is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m.
