CLEVELAND, TN. | Several members of the men's and women's cross-country team competed in the Lee University Invitational in Cleveland, TN over the weekend.

The Young Harris men opened up the 2-day meet with Liam King in the 10,000m run. King finished 4^th overall over the 10,000m distance clocking in at 31:18.19 (5:00/mile pace). As of March 25^th, that time would rank King 33^rd nationally in Div. II, and 4^th in the Southeast region (YHC will begin sponsoring track and field in 2024-2025 and does not currently count in the rankings due to not sponsoring the sport). 

The Mountain Lions began the day Saturday competing in the men's and women's 5,000m run.  Emily Baars finished in 48^th place with a time of 21:10.57 and Brinley Wilson finished 51^st with a time of 24:05.30.
