BOWLING GREEN, Ohio - The Bowling Green State University cross country team will host the Falcon Invitational this Saturday (Oct. 16) in their final tune-up before the MAC Championships. The men's meet will begin at 9:45 (8K), with the women starting at 10:30 (5K).

PARTICIPATING TEAMS
(Both men's and women's teams unless noted) Bowling Green, Central Michigan (women only), Cleveland State (women only), Western Ontario, Youngstown State and John Carroll.

COURSE INFORMATION
The starting line is located on the 14th hole of Forrest Creason Golf Course, which runs along Stadium Drive just north of Doyt Perry Stadium. The finish chute is located to the east of Perry Stadium and the tents that comprise the Meijer Tailgate Park, and just west of Interstate 75.

Fans interested in attending the races are encouraged to park in the overflow area of Lot 6. That parking area is adjacent to the finish chute.

DIRECTIONS
The best way to get to the course is to take I-75. Exit at the Bowling Green exit (Exit 181) and proceed west toward campus (toward the football stadium). Turn right at the first light, and then make a right on Stadium Drive (first right, just before the campus information booth). Take Stadium Drive; the road will curve to the left. The tents for the Meijer Tailgate Park will be on the left, and the finish chute for the Falcon Invitational will be on the right.
