YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) - With the 2016 season quickly approaching, the Eastern Michigan University men's cross country team announced its 2016 team captain today, August 22. The Eagles will be led by redshirt junior Hlynur Andresson (Vestmannaeyjar, Iceland - Mountain Ridge) throughout the upcoming campaign.
"From his first day on campus, Hlynur has been such a positive, dedicated, and hard working competitive student-athlete," explained head coach John Goodridge. "He is a very easy choice for our team captain."
Andresson, who will be entering his third season donning the Green and White, has been one of the team's top harriers throughout his first two seasons in Ypsilanti.
