Women's Cross Country is Set to Race at the Princeton Invite

PHILADELPHIA- The Temple women's cross country team travels to Princeton, N.J. this Saturday, Oct. 16 for the Princeton Invite. The race will be held at West Windsor Fields and will see the women's 6k race start at 10:30 a.m.

From Head Coach James Snyder

"The women have been training really well together over the past few weeks and we've got nearly our full team back together and 100% healthy. Since mid-September, it's been our goal to just get better both individually and as a team every week. That progress has been evident in training, and I'll be excited to see it translate into racing this weekend."
