The Villanova cross country teams will travel to Madison Wisconsin for Friday's Wisconsin Adidas Invitational. On the men's side, 39 teams (20 of them ranked in the top 30 in the country) are competing, including #2 Wisconsin, #4 Stanford, #6 BYU, #7 Indiana, #9 North Carolina State, and #10 Oregon. Villanova's men are currently ranked #19 in the country.
