CROSS COUNTRY RUNS FINAL TUNEUP FOR BIG SOUTH FRIDAY



RADFORD, Va. – The Radford cross country teams will compete for the final time leading up to the Big South Championships as they run in the VertCross Invitational in Kernersville, N.C., on Friday.
 
A total of 25 schools are expected to be in the field for the meet, including fellow conference foes Campbell, Charleston Southern, High Point, Longwood and UNC Asheville.
 
Radford's men are coming off a strong performance two weeks ago when they finished second overall at the UNC Asheville Challenge in the Big South preview. Each of the team's top seven finishers posted their best career 8K times, with two placing in the top 10 overall, three in the top 12 and four in the top 20.
 
The Highlander women will be running in their second 6K of the season, but looking to set up themselves up for successful runs at the 5K distance in the conference championship at the end of the month.
 
The men's race starts at 4:30 p.m. at the Ivey M. Redmon Sports Complex, followed by the women's at 5:15 p.m.
