Good catch, SLO Guy. I had incorrectly labeled two as just Cal Poly. Six runners is quite the contingent.

Why is Stanford listed above Cal Poly?

Interesting. Thanks for putting this together. Having 2 or 3 runners might just be a coincidence, but more than that probably says something about a school's distance orientation. It's also interesting that strong programs like Oklahoma State and Northern Arizona only have 2 despite strong distance programs, perhaps because they recruit more foreign runners.

Can you do this for the ladies as well? I'm interested to see if it's the same general schools.

interesting!

Matt O'Connor did not start running competitively until after college. I find that quite impressive. He was a 17 minute 5ker 6 years ago.

Consequently, no one from the Creighton XC/track team is running the trials. He went to school there, but wasn't running competitively.

Actually, Georgetown has to share their one entry with the University of Portland. Stephen Kersh graduated from Portland, but spend his grad school year and remaining eligibility at Georgetown.

Would love to, though the data comes from me Google-ing every runner I don't know, which gets a bit tedious, especially since the women have more qualifiers. We'll see...

Good catch! There could be a few others like that.
