MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The University of Memphis cross country squads return to action Saturday, Sept. 15 when they run in the 28th-annual Rhodes College Invitational. The men's and women's races are held at Shelby Farms Park in east Memphis.
Memphis has competed in 11 of the last 12 Rhodes College Invitationals (did not run in 2008), including the last nine from 2009-17.
The Tigers men's team brings some momentum into Saturday's race after winning its season opener at the Brooks Twilight Classic Sept. 1. On the other side, the Memphis women's team enters Saturday's race – as it did in its opener – with injuries to a couple of key performers.
