HATTIESBURG, Miss.- The Southern Miss cross country team travels to Mobile, Alabama, to compete in the Azalea City Cross Country Classic. The race will be hosted by the University of South Alabama on Friday, Sept. 11, at the Mobile County Fairgrounds.
The women's 6k race is slated to kickoff at 5:05 P.M. The Golden Eagles will compete against South Alabama, Troy, Alabama State, and the University of Mobile.
Junior Rebecca Ulrich leads the Golden Eagles into their competitions this fall. Last week at the Southern Miss Cross Country Invitational, she won the 5k with a time of 18:12.90 followed by junior Daphney Stanford who finished with a time of 19:12.71. Junior's Dana Dillistone and Avery Rosenbalm look to make an impact on the course for Southern Miss this week.
Following the race this weekend, Southern Miss will be racing again at the LSU XC Invitational on Sept. 19, in Baton Rouge, La.
