EVANSVILLE, Ind. – For the second weekend in a row, the University of Evansville cross country teams will be in the state of Tennessee as they travel to the Austin Peay Cross Country Festival on Saturday morning.
 
The women's teams take to the course for their 5K race at 9 a.m. before the men run a 4-mile race at approximately 9:30.  It will be a three team meet featuring Austin Peay, Sewanee and Evansville.
 
Last weekend in Nashville, Michelle Karp spent Friday evening working as a trainer at a local high school football game.  After a late night, she got a few hours of sleep, drove to Nashville and competed at a high level.  She came within five seconds of her PR, running a 20:33.2 to finish third on the UE squad.  Leading the women was Sienna Crews.  She finished 167th out of 244 runners with a 5K time of 19:36.3.
 
Elizabeth Kingshott was second for UE, finishing in a time of 20:03.8.  It was her top 5K race of the year.  Karp was the third Ace across the stripe with Ashton Bosler trailing her.  Bosler posted a time of 20:46.0, besting her PR from the Early Bird Invite.  Laurel Wolfe (21:53.3) rounded out the top five while Bailey George, Ashley Torres, Hayley Elliott, Katie Beaber and Anna Loef rounded out the squad.
 
Ben Woolems was the top performer on the men's side.  His 8K time checked in at 29:55.3, placing him 193rd out of 213 runners.  Ross Frondorf was next, posting a 30:08.0 while Paul Schwartz ran a 30:16.8 to finish third on the team.  Jordan Carpenter set a PR as he crossed the line in 30:59.5.  It was almost two minutes under his best time in the Early Bird Invite.
