UNCG didn't just win, they hammered everybody on both sides it looks like. Koech ran way better than everyone thought he would. More shocking: UNCG's emphatic sweep or Wofford men not finishing last? |

In the biggest news of the day WOFFORD DID NOT GET LAST!!!!!! |

UNCG wins even if you score the entire conference against them on the mens side. And someone get the Wofford coach some pickles! He broke the longest streak in SoCon history! That's right Wofford was not DFL! |

Socon in summary: Team Race: Greensboro - Kenyaned it out for the win. Davidson - Underperformed once again. Luckily Hopkins actually improved a ton at conference. Furman - Wishes Hopkins didn't improve a ton at conference. App - Got some big motivation for some improvements next year. Chatt. - Never seems to have a 5th man Western - Where's our boy Weaver? Elon - Some reason always led by freshmen. Charleston - Patty Mo's been drinking too much of the kool-aid down there. Citadel - Got one guy sub 25:30. A possible first for the school. Wofford - Spiritually the real winners of Socon since they finally broke out of that last place spot. Samford - Good lord they ran 5 guys and there 5th man was last overall. Individual Race: Chelimo took the lead...and the race was decided about a half mile into it. |

Just looked at some old predictions... and this one made me laugh. Ok, let's be honest though, I don't think anyone had Koech in the top 20. |
| forecast? |

|
Next year will be rough on my Paladins losing many in top 7 of each gender! |
| crazy runner |

Chelimo is just an animal and app really struggled. Western finally broke the 7 year curse of 7th without weaver these guys and coach deserve props. |
| the end |

Well that was a bit of an anticlimactic ending to the season. I thought both races would be much closer. Props to UNCG for a very good day. |
| Whoa |
| ||
|
Prediction of the day: The G sends at least one to nationals, it wouldn't surprise me if the team gets an at large bid... four guys top 7 WTF. that was the most dominating and impressive performance this one man has ever seen. I think it needs to be said and celebrated that the BroCon is becoming a much stronger conference. Let it be said Davidson did not underperform, to suggest that anyone in this conference could have beaten the G is absurd. |
| Oops... I did it again |

Congrats to Western and Danny!!! Sixth place aint bad without your star runner. Thanks to Josey's redshirt, no one from Western graduates and I'm smelling top 5 next year!! WOOHOO for school! |

Props to Greensboro, they killed it yesterday. I'd say if Koech can have a race like he did on Saturday at regionals they have a pretty good shot at going to nats. Anyone here think so too? |

UNCG, while very good, is still gonna have a very hard time going to nationals. They haven't really beaten any good teams throughout the year and will have to probably be at least top 3 to go. NC State put 5 under 24 at ACC's and UNC's seventh man is at least 30 seconds faster than Koech. Add in Louisville and possibly Virginia Tech and it doesn't look like UNCG could do it. Also Thompson was in the lead pack and died miserably last year. UNCG would need Thompson and Katam to have great days as well as Kemboi and Koech seeing some big PR's. I do think Chelimo will win the region though. |

UNCG's chances aren't good at making nationals; NC State and Eastern Kentucky are clearly the best two teams. I'll give them a decent shot at beating Carolina though for the #3 spot. You can't compare the Socon championship times with the ACC championship times. I think a better comparison might be to look at mutual opponents. UNCG #2 and #3 beat Duke's #1 at UVA and Duke's #1 was only 5 seconds behind Carolina's #2 at the ACC meet. Certainly Chelimo can beat Hurysz - and Thompson/Katam have a reasonable chance at beating Cunningham. So it's feasible that UNCG could beat UNC at the 1, 2, and 3 spot. I think Kemboi can stay close to UNC's #4 (24:27 ain't bad). So once again UNCG's chances will depend on Mike Koech. He has been closing the gap on Kemboi each race, so that looks a little promising. But there are obviously other teams besides UNC that beat UNCG - Va Tech, UVA, Duke, Louisville, W&M. If Koech runs well, I like their chances for a top 5 finish. But that probably won't be good enough for an at-large bid. |

UNCG is great ......... in the SOCON. But they havent beaten anybody even dreaming of going to Nationals. Because of this, they will need to auto qualify (top 2) at regionals next year. That will not happen. As usual, the winner of the SoCon will be lucky to finish inside the top 7 at Regionals! |
