The will he or won't he debate to Fisher suiting up for Stanford continues. He is not listed on entries for this weekend's Washington XC meet.
As far as Maton goes, has there ever been a recruit so highly touted that is given so little respect in the rankings?
1:52.89, 8:18 3K as a junior in high school
3:59.38 mile last year, 14:47 5000 USATF JR Champ (decisive win over Geberkidane)
Maton is my pick to be the #1 Freshman at NCAA XC this year, even if Fisher runs.
Who?
Turn around 180deg . . . and it's Maton ducking Fisher at the Stanford Invite.
Nobody's avoiding anybody.
First race that matters is Pac-12s.
Unless Fisher shows in practice he's having problems handling higher mileage necessary for 10k racing -- having maxed at approx. 55 in hs -- we'll see them both then.
Our preview of the action is now up:
At Paul Short, #7 Villanova went 1-2 in the men's race but #14Georgetown took them down.

Going to be a long year for nova if they're #5 doesn't improve, mightily!
Thought it was interesting that Megan Curham (Princeton) won the open 6km at Paul Short - she's taking the year off and she won the race by 17 seconds in 20:16. Would have won the gold (Temple's Bianca Fernandez in 20:27)
Guelph wins women's paul short race.
Doesn't look like Georgetown ran it's 'A' team in the women's results as they only had 4 finishers. I was going to drive to the meet this morning but the rainy weather killed my motivation so I'm happy I stayed at home.

Full resuls here:
How soft is the course at Lehigh? Has it been a downpour all day?
I didn't get there until the high school races, but it was a mess. The varsity races were sloppy, but kids still pulled out some fast times. The JV races were laughable. Total slop.
Raced today, there was a steady rain almost all day and a lot of wind. Got colder it seemed as they day went on into the high 40s or low 50s. Course got much muddier as the day went on. It looked like the high school races were miserable, Tiernan looked so relaxed at the finish as well, watch out for big things from him. You are right about Nova's 5th man, he was well buried in that race today. Not a particularly deep field either, we will have to see how far back he will be later in the season.
Predictions for Princeton tomorrow?

she's taking the year off? more info?
Results for the Washington invitational.
Of note: Oregon won both Men's and Women's.
On the Men's side: Stanford didn't run all their top folks. Oregon didn't run a couple either.
Seems like with everyone running Stanford would have been on top.
M. Maton and T. Anderson had nice debuts.
So....Portland really isn't very good this year
elkaim still has eligibility right? i've only seen leingang and haney mentioned as far as missing oregon runners...

Maybe so, but it looks like didn't run their expected top 3 in this meet (Martinez, Krebs, Enriquez). Lost a lot from last year, so likely a rebuilding year for Conner. 16-second spread yesterday is something nice to build on, though.
