WACO, Texas - A total of 12 Baylor women's cross country runners will be in action at the Aggieland Open at 5 p.m. on Friday in College Station, Texas.

For the recently added meet, Baylor's top runners will be off, but a dozen other members on the roster will get a chance to run the 5,000-meter race hosted by Texas A&M at the Dale Watts course.

The runners scheduled to be in action for the Lady Bears are Emily Curran, Amanda Dillon, Haley Everroad, Micaela Freeman, Sydney Gandy, Kasey Kinzel, Isabella Lackner, Katy Parsons, Jessica Purtell, Leila Rohde, Megan Rule and Lindsay Walton.
