Cross country set to race through the Bear Twilight Invitational

By Adam Gibson | Sports Writer

The Baylor cross country team opens up its season by hosting the Bear Twilight Invitational at 7 p.m. today at the HOT Soccer Complex. The teams competing will be Baylor, University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), Southern Methodist University (SMU), University of North Texas (UNT), Texas State and University of the Incarnate Ward.

The annual invitational is cross country’s version of an exhibition, and the results will not count toward the rest of the season. Rather than running the usual 8K race that they will run the rest of the season, all of the competitors will run a 6K due to the temperature and it being the first race of the year for the teams.
