Memphis, Tenn.---The University of Memphis men's cross country team will head to Cape Girardeau, Mo., this weekend to compete in the SEMO Invitational, hosted by Southeast Missouri State University. The squad, which has competed in just one meet this season because of injuries, will use the meet as a final tune-up for next weekend's C-USA Championships.
The team is expected to be led by senior, Mate Nemeth, who is coming off of a solid, 16th place time of 26:25.81 for the 8k Saluki Invitational two weekends ago. Michael Mentz, who finished just behind Nemeth in 17th place at the Saluki Invitational, figures to fill the team's second spot, with the squad likely rounded out by Abraham Shaposhnik, Jason Morgan and Gary Nemeth.
The SEMO Invitational will be held on teh SEMO campus in Cape Girardeau. The men's competition will be an 8k race, and is expected to begin at approximately 11 a.m. Saturday morning.
