JAMAICA PLAIN, Mass. (EMUEagles.com) — The Eastern Michigan University women's cross country team returns to action Friday, Sept. 21, when it takes part in the Battle In Beantown in Jamaica Plain, Mass., hosted by Boston College. It will be the first time EMU competes in the meet since the 2014 campaign.

None of the current roster experienced Eastern's last trip to Beantown, however, familiar names highlighted the team's 11th-place finish. Victoria Voronko led the Eagles, finishing seventh, with Sofie Gallein and recent graduate Jordann McDermitt crossing the finish line three seconds apart, placing 25th and 28th, respectively.
