By: Philip Ratchford, Sports Information

Greenville, SC- The St. Andrews University men’s cross country team hit the trail at the Furman Invitational this weekend, where they competed against teams from across the southeast. The Knights ran their way to a 9 th place finish out of the 12 teams that participated in the race.

James Walls (Bear Creek, NC) again claimed the first place finish for SAU while taking the 17 th spot overall in the race. Walls has run an excellent season, coming in first for the Knights in every race that the Fab Five have attended. The Knights’ second place runner was Dagmawi Abebe (Gaithersburg, MD), who finished 25 th overall with a time of 27:40.

Tyler Beaver, a Hillsborough, NC, native, found his way into the third place spot for SAU. Crossing the line after Beaver, Brandon Watson (Benson, NC) was SAU’s fourth place finisher with a time of 31:02. Finishing out the Knights’ scoring was freshman Patrick Ochoa (Derwood, MD), after running for 33:10 minutes.

The Furman Invitational marked the conclusion of the Knights’ regular season for the fall of 2011. While there are no more races scheduled for this season, the Knights Harriers may try to find their way to a few more trails to run as individuals.
