This Saturday, Minnesota State - Moorhead will host the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) cross country conference meet. The women's race will be contested at 11:00 A.M. and the men's will follow at noon.Augustana will go into the meet as the favorite in both the men's and women's race. The Vikings swept the NSIC last year and are the highest ranked teams in the conference.
They are not a sure win, however, as they will face numerous challenges to the crown this year. One such challenger, Minnesota State - Mankato, looks to be one of the top teams on the men's side and will be the focus of this week's question ...
