The Eagles placed first in the Ontario invitational in 2007 and 2010

LONDON, Ontario (EMUEagles.com) — The Eastern Michigan University men's cross country program heads out of the country for the Western Ontario International Invitational in London, Ontario Saturday, Sept. 22. This is the first time EMU has competed in the Canadian invitational since the 2010 campaign.

"I am really looking forward to returning to the International as it has been eight years since we last competed at Thames Valley," said EMU Head Coach John Goodridge.

The Green and White has had great success during its last two trips to Ontario, having placed first as a team in both 2007 and 2010. In 2007, Josh Karanja took home the individual title, posting the 11th-fastest time in meet history. Overall, the Eagles had all five scorers finish in the top-10, each within 33 seconds of one another, ending with a team score of 25 points. In its most recent trip, EMU had another stout performance, scoring 30 points with four of the finishers placing in the top-five.

The 8k at Thames Valley Golf Club is scheduled to begin at 10:50 a.m. Results will follow the conclusion of the meet.
