[Cross Country] Farmer, Hoover, Smiths produce outstanding marks at Spartan Invitational

Behind outstanding top-30 runs from Seth Farmer and Hunter Hoover, the Shawnee State men's cross country program was able to claim a top-10 finish against NCAA Division I and II competition in the eight-kilometer run, while Brooke Smith and Marissa Smith collected top-50 runs to head up the SSU women's cross country runners in an individual-only six-kilometer race as part of the Spartan Invitational on Friday in East Lansing, Mich.

Farmer and Hoover, who collected top-five finishes en route to leading the men to a victory at the season-opening Mid-South Conference Previews in Bowling Green, Ky., continued to perform in a strong manner as the duo finished 12th and 26th out of the 326 runners who finished the Spartan Invitational.
