The Lady Eagles won four straight titles from 1991-94 and regained the crown last season after placing second in 1995. Junior Isis Green, fifth at the 1996 league championship, has paced the Lady Eagles so far this season as the first Coppin runner across the line in all four meets in which she has competed. Zara Eden, Draphet Moody, Lisa Taylor, Sceana Young, Elethia Rhoden and Janee Ward have also been key runners for the Lady Eagles. We've already beaten Hampton, the defending champion, so I' think the men have as good a chance to win as the women do. Morgan State is hosting the event, which returns to Baltimore after four years in Greensboro.
