On that day, in Bethlehem, Pa., Providence earned four of the top-12 spots. A similar performance from All-Americans Shelby Greany (Suffern, N.Y,), Emily Sisson (Chesterfield, Mo.), and Hannah Davidson (Saratoga Springs, N.Y.), along with sophomore Laura Nagel (Napier, New Zealand) will likely be needed if the program is to claim its 6<sup>th</sup><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>conference crown.</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; ">“We’ve got to get our top four women in the top ten, which will be hard to do because everyone in the top ten will be an (eventual) All-American,” said Treacy, now in his 28<sup>th</sup><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>season guiding the Friars. “If we have four in the top twelve at least, and get our fifth runner Charlotte (Ffrench’ O’Carroll, Dublin, Ireland) home in the early twenties, we’re in the game.”</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; ">The men’s team, searching for a remarkable 16<sup>th</sup><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>title, will be without defending BIG EAST individual champion Lee Carey (Bedworth, England) who is redshirting this season. However, the 14<sup>th</sup>-ranked Friars still boast a veteran laden group, led by All-American David McCarthy (Waterford, Ireland), classmates Dominic Channon (Nelson, New Zealand) and Julian Matthews (Nelson, New Zealand), as well as impressive freshman Shane Quinn (Waterford, Ireland). The squad most recently grabbed ninth in the ultra-competitive Wisconsin adidas Invitational on October 14. That day, the Friars were the best BIG EAST team out of the six taking part.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; ">“We just have to run as well as we did at Wisconsin, I think,” said Treacy. “We would feel more confident going into the meet if we had Lee, but that is not the case. We were without Lee at Wisconsin and we still ran pretty well.<span> </span>So it’s just a matter of continuation of that kind of performance and we’ll be in the hunt.”</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; ">The gun goes off for the men’s 8-kilometer race at 11:00 am.
