Meet Information

Meet Information

We would like to take this opportunity to invite you and your cross country team to participate in the TCA Crusaders Invitational. This years meet will be held on Saturday, October 13, 2018 at TCAs Baton Rouge Campus located at 2037 Quail Drive, Baton Rouge, LA 70808. Our campus features 55 acres of rolling hills and we are excited to announce our new cross country course. New for 2018, the course travels throughout our campus with runners experiencing two serious hills, a few smaller rolling hills, a fast straight away and a heavily wooded finish. It is a one mile loop course so junior high and open runners will make two loops and Varsity will make three loops, allowing runners to get a feel for the course before the finish. Our team has worked hard to create a world class course for all our student athletes to enjoy. The cost of the meet is only $50 per school. Please contact us with questions or to preview the course before race day.
