BIRMINGHAM – The UAB cross country team will open the 2021 season Saturday, Sept. 4 at the City Auto Memphis Twilight Classic, hosted by Christian Brothers University at Mike Rose Soccer Complex in Memphis, Tenn. The women's 5k race is scheduled to begin at 9:20 p.m.
This will be the first team meet for first year head coach Maryn Lowry.
"The Memphis Twilight will be a great opportunity for the team to suit up, run as a pack, and be in a quality competitive setting," coach Lowry said. "The goal is to continue building positive momentum towards the championship season."
In 2019, the last time UAB participated in the event, the team finished sixth out of 14 teams. Lauren Robinson led the Blazers with a time of 18:37.95.
The Blazers are set to return eight runners from last season, in addition to one newcomer for the 2021 season.
