LAS VEGAS - The UNLV women's cross country team will wrap up its regular season Saturday at the Sacramento State Open, held at Granite Regional Park near the Sacramento State campus in Sacramento, Calif.
The women's 5k race is scheduled to start at 9:30 a.m. (PDT) and will be followed by the men's race shortly after the conclusion of the women's race. UNLV will be joined in the women's field by host Sacramento State, Nevada, Reno and some unattached runners. The men's field includes Sacramento State, American River College and individuals.
The Rebel lineup will be made up Ali Ainsworth, Janessa Hoppe, Katie Hughes, Lekeisha Lawson, Leta Rose, Jenni Shearer, Desarae Tyson and Marina Young. Shearer, a freshman from Fort Wayne, Ind., has been the Rebels' highest finisher in all four meets this fall.
