Two-Minute Drill: Redhawks Host OVC Cross Country Championships

Southeast Athletics

Southeast Missouri will host the Ohio Valley Conference Cross Country Championship meet for the first time since 2008, tomorrow, Oct. 27 at the Osage Centre in Cape Girardeau. 

The course will open at 8 a.m. for spectators with the women running a 5K at 9 a.m. followed by the men's 8K race at 10 a.m. The meet is free and open to the public.

Redhawks cross country coach Ryan Lane said the program is privileged to host one of 32 Division I conference championship meets in Cape Girardeau. He is excited to be able to put on true championship event and make the meet something the University and the town both can be proud of, and also gives Redhawk athletes the best opportunity to perform at their highest level.

Several food vendors will be on site, including Sugarfire Smoke House, Imo's Pizza, Baristas Coffee Bar, and Bon Bon's of Cape Girardeau. The Ohio Valley Conference will also have a tent where patrons can buy championship merchandise.

The 2018-19 basketball season also tips off tomorrow, with a men’s and women’s exhibition basketball doubleheader. It will be 90s Night at the Basketball game. The game will feature 90s music, themed contests, and other nostalgia. The women tip-off at 2 p.m. and the men will follow at 4:30.

A pair of Redhawks Basketball student-athletes earned Preseason All-OVC honors earlier this week during the OVC Basketball Media Day: Ledarrius Brewer for the men, and Tesia Thompson for the women.
