MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The University of Tulsa men's and women's cross country teams won their respective 8K and 6K races on Saturday morning at the Rhodes College Invitational. The race was run at Shelby Farms, which will host the American Athletic Conference Championship on Nov. 1.
Both teams cruised to the team title as the Golden Hurricane men finished with a score of 20 points to finish ahead of second-place Memphis' 63 points. Meanwhile, the TU women put together a score of 21 points to top second-place Cincinnati's total of 67 points.
Caitlin Klopfer claimed the top individual time in the women's race as Tulsa placed six runners in the top 10, including four of the top five. The individual victory is the first of Klopfer's career and the first for a TU women's runner since Reagan Hausmann won last year's Missouri Southern Stampede.

The Golden Hurricane men's squad, which came into the competition ranked No. 30 in the latest USTFCCCA National Coaches' Poll, also placed six of the top 10 runners at the meet, including five of the top six marks en route to the title.
Scott Beattie made his season debut with a second-place finish and an 8K time of 24:21.5. He was followed by freshman Patrick Dever (24:21.7), Peter Lynch (24:25.5), Isaac Akers (24:25.8) and Cameron Field (24:35.7), who finished 3rd-6th to comprise the team score.
