JERSEY CITY, NJ – The Saint Peter's women's cross country team is back in action this Friday, October 24, competing at the Haverford Invitational hosted by Haverford College. The race will take place at the Fran Rizzo Cross Country Course, with the women's 6K set to begin at 4:30 p.m.
Last time out, Saint Peter's raced at the ECAC/IC4A Championships, where
Shirleysa Rivas led the Peacocks across the line with a time of 24:56.3 in the 6K. She was followed by
Paulina Nunez, Shania McDuffie, Luisana Flores, and
Omaria Serrano.
ABOUT THE FORDS
Haverford enters its second home meet of the season coming off a standout performance at the Rowan Border Battle, where the Fords finished seventh overall in a field of 31 teams — their best result at the event since 2021. Junior Alice Sappenfield led the way with a time of 22:45.6, as Haverford defeated several regionally ranked opponents in the process.
Friday's meet will serve as Saint Peter's final tune-up before the MAAC Cross Country Championships, set for Saturday, November 2, at Twin Ponds on the Farm.
