WILLIAMSBURG - Most every team in the national rankings were off last weekend, resting up for the Brooks Pre-National Invitational this weekend, and as a result the rankings did not change. William and Mary’s men’s cross country team continues at 19th nationally and third in the region.

The Tribe will take part in two races this Saturday, October 14. The team’s top runners will travel to Terre Haute, Indiana for the Brooks Pre-National Invitational, while the rest of the team will be in Williamsburg hosting the Tribe Open.
