Roadrunners to return to action on Friday evening at Texas Invitational

SAN ANTONIO — After taking last weekend off, UTSA's women's cross country team will return to the course on Friday evening at the Texas Invitational. The 3,000-meter race is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. at Hancock Golf Course in Austin.

Three other schools will join the Roadrunners and host Longhorns, as Prairie View A&M, Texas-Rio Grande Valley and Texas Southern also will take part in the meet. Anika Alfaro, Lynette Amaram, Sarah Estrada, Colleen Gilbert, Rian Rodriguez, Jayela Slack and Marlette Trevino are scheduled to compete for UTSA.

Grace Kohler's 15th-place finish highlighted the squad's first meet of the season two weeks ago at the Aggie Opener in College Station. Kohler, a senior from San Antonio, covered the 4,100-meter Dale Watts Cross Country Course in 15:28.1.

Meet host Texas A&M captured the team title with 23 points on the strength of Karis Jochen's individual victory (13:50.3). Lamar placed second with 47 points and UTSA was third with 66.
