LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Queens University of Charlotte's men's cross country team traveled to Kentucky Saturday afternoon for the 2009 Greater Louisville Cross Country Classic to prove they could compete with the nation's elite – and didn't disappoint. The Royals combined to finish 7th/38.
Queen's rallied behind Michael Crouch (Yucca Valley, Calif., Yucca Valley), who finished the 5-mile race in 23:55.14 to place 4th in a field of 334.

The Royals had an additional three runners place in the top 82 of the race. Oscar Ogwaro (Los Angeles, Calif., Woodrow Wilson) finished in 24:32.66, good enough for 18th, followed by Futsum Mebrahtu (Phoenix, Ariz., North) in 60th (25:20.05), and Simon Stuetzel (Meinborn, Germany) who finished just seconds later to finish 82nd (25:35.89)
