The Emory University men's cross country team, ranked 34th nationally, enjoyed a fine performance at the Berry College Invitational on Saturday, posting a second-place finish out of 13 teams.

A pair of sophomores, Scott Jarvis and Stephen Ellwood, led the way for Emory with Jarvis clocking an 8k time of 27:16, good for 10th place in the 11-runner field, while Jarvis crossed the finish line in 27:19, placing him 11th overall.  Freshman Chuck Ashforth was the No. 3 Emory runner to score with his effort of 27:20 slotting him 15th.  Senior Jon Usry (27:32, 20th) and junior Geraint Davies (27:40, 22nd) were the other Emory entries to score. 

Emory returns to action on Oct. 2 when it competes at the Louisville Classic.
