CLINTON, S.C. - The Presbyterian College men's and women's cross country teams reported to campus on Monday night.

After a midday break, the team met again to have a recovery run around the town of Clinton.
"I was very pleased with how the team performed this morning," said head coach Thad Palmer. "The rain definitely affected us mentally, but we recovered to have a good showing. All the freshmen exceeded my expectations for the fitness test."
