BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The Indiana cross country teams will make the short trip over to Terre Haute, Ind. for the annual Indiana Intercollegiate meet which will take place on Friday, Sept. 14. The meet is slated to begin at 3:30 p.m. ET at the LaVern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course. Three races are on the schedule beginning with the open race followed by the women's 5K and then the men's 8K.

The IU women's team has taken home the title in this meet in each of the last three seasons, including last year when the Hoosiers hosted in Bloomington. The men have taken first place in three of the last four seasons and hope to bounce back after a second place finish in the meet a year ago.

The LaVern Gibson Championship Course played host to the NCAA Championships last fall where the Indiana men's team took seventh place. This will be IU's only trip over to Terre Haute in 2012.
