Western Kentucky's cross country team will close out its season at the Conference USA Championships on Saturday in Hoover, Ala.
The meet will be hosted by UAB and held at Veterans Park, the same course WKU competed at in their regular-season finale at the Blazer Classic.
The women will open the competition first with a 6K beginning at 9 a.m., followed by the men’s 8K set to start at 10 a.m.
In their last time out at Veterans Park on Oct. 16, both squads earned top-five finishes in their respective races. With the men’s team placing second and the women’s squad finishing fifth, both teams will be carrying momentum and experience at the course into the C-USA Championships.
