Tom Wilson will send out a men's DMR contingent looking to reach the ECAC qualifying time. There will also be five women and five men getting their first shot at the 5K this winter. Peter Francia is the No. 3 seed among the men.
The meet resumes at 10 a.m. Saturday. Among the Fredonia State runners, four men and three women are entered in their respective 800-meter runs. Wilson said the 300-meter oval will provide a good opportunity for the group to run their best times of the season.

Emily Cummiskey is seeded No. 5 among the women,
Andrew Charsky No. 5 among the men.
