After a week away from competition, the Miami University men and women’s cross country teams look forward to their next contest Friday. This meet will feature universities residing within Ohio’s borders, meaning the meet is critical not only for in-state bragging rights, but for recruiting as well.

Many elite Ohio high school runners will stay in-state to continue their education and running careers, so this race attracts their attention to Ohio’s best collegiate programs.

However, cross country director Tom Chorny does not believe that Ohio State University, the University of Akron or the University of Cincinnati will be in attendance.
