Nobody has faith in the D2 guy? McDonald won't be able to break away at 1k because Kiprop will not let him go. Thank God he transferred. For the next two years, nobody will be winning the 5k in 14:30 as he will make it blazing from the gun
This cannot be stated enough. Kiprop destroyed D2 all season with frontrunning tactics. Sydney Gidabuday was only just beaten by Jack Bruce of Arkansas (2nd at NCAA 5k outdoors) at Mt Sac, just to show the level of talent Kiprop was beating in D2. Kiprop also killed Chalenga in XC, Chalenga transferred to Alabama for indoors and placed 5th in the 5k indoors and was all-American in the 10k outdoors.
