Southwestern Assemblies of God University (SAGU) Men’s and Women’s Cross Country teams First to the Finish Stampede Missouri Southern State University

The women’s team has another opportunity to qualify for NCCAA nationals in a stacked field of serious competitors.  The large field gives the Lady Lions a perfect opportunity for personal best across the board.

For the Lions, this has proved to be a big week.  On Wednesday, the NAIA Top 25 Cross Country teams were announced.  SAGU received five votes in the latest polls and are on the cusp of breaking into the top 25.  The Missouri Southern meet will give the Lions a chance to continue to climb in the rankings.

Both teams are in for an impressive showing this Saturday, September 16 ^th , 2017 on the John Rutledge Cross Country Course. Live results will be streamed at www.heartlandtiming.com .  The Lady Lions run at 8am and the men compete at 9am.
