The teams took last week off from competition to prepare for the Auburn
meet. On Sept. 25 the men and women competed at the Paul Short Run in
Bethlehem, Pa., where junior Angela Homan captured the women's title
and the men placed third overall.
For her personal best performance at the Paul Short Run, Homan earned
SEC Cross Country Athlete of the Week; Auburn's second honor this
season. Andrew Heath also garnered the award in September after winning
