DCG: Mile/800/1000/3000

Mueller: Mile/1000/3000

Assuming they only run the 3 if the team score is close???

Sure hope Jerry doesn’t run his legs off and end up sucking at Nats. Also hope that he doesn’t need to run at a last chance meet to lock in a spot.

Dear Dave: don’t spend it all at the Indoor Miac meet. No one wants St Thomas to win another title, but we don’t want to do it at the expense of looking like scrubs at nats.

Mueller is in the 1000/3000/5000. Learn how to read

lol anyone else click on this link and end up drafting an email?

Guy who got that TFRRS auto-score the meet deal, do that again. My estimate based on adding in my head and guessing on DMRs had Thomas hitting 140 or so and Carleton projected out to about 130. Tommies are going to need to clean up in the field events.

Sick comeback, bro. It must be that tommie education.

St. Thomas-145

Carleton-134

Bethel-96

St. Olaf-80

Hamline-72

St. Johns-66

St. Mary's-52

Concordia- Moorhead-29

Gustavus Adolphus-29

Augsburg-25

Macalester-5

This is calculated with the current top 8 that are entered in each event. DMR was kind of arbitrarily chosen, here's that order:

Carleton

St. Olaf

St. Thomas (Minn.)

St. John's (Minn.)

Bethel (Minn.)

Gustavus Adolphus

Hamline

Concordia-Moorhead

Who's going to make the biggest upset in the team scores?

Is Muller going to run a DMR leg also on Friday night?

Some actual bold predictions

800

1. Krogman

2. Donson

3. Hatton

4. Joey Cook

5. Madigan

You guys are all underestimating Krogman. This man is somehow a dark horse even with the second fastest time. I know you guys don't respect St Marys but Donson will not be able to keep up.

1000

1. Sean Lonergan

2. Hatton

3. Donson

4. Wachter

5. Mueller

Donson and Mueller tripling is not going to go well for them, and Mueller will not have a 2:30 in him after running a 5k. Lonergan is quietly the most impressive sophomore this year and is primed for a breakthrough after only running 2 meets so far this season.

Mile

1. Ketola

2. Lonergan

3. Donson

4. Wahcter

5. Gustafson

Ketola knows that this race is his only shot at a conference championship and he is going to go after it from the gun. Donson will try to win with his speed but St Olaf knows what they are doing. No one else has a shot quite frankly because everyone else is going to race for 4th.

3000

1. William Anderson

2. Liban Jama

3. Austin O'Hare

4. Burgsthaler

5. Lerdall

Donson and Mueller will not run the 3000 unless its close which I don't see happening because they are more worried about Nationals. St Olaf knows how to run a tactical race and it will be up to everyone else to hold on. Burgstahler is the most interesting of the St Johns guys because he clearly has more in the tank than he showed in his only other 3k this year.

5000

1. Lerdall

2. Paul Timm

3. Mueller

4. Kadrofske

5. Mueller

Lerdall is the defending champ and he knows how to get it done. Paul Timm has nothing to lose and will make the most out of the opportunity. Mueller and Wilkinson obviously could win too, but for the sake of bold predictions, lets just ask ourselves two questions. Can 2 freshman figure out the right strategy to win the most tactical race they have ever seen? and can they find a way to win a race where 1st place is 15:20?

DMR

1. Bethel

2. St Thomas

3. St Olaf

4. Carleton

5. Hamline

Carleton does not have the mid d depth to win this race, and they obviously will not have the fresh legs at the end of Day 1. They might send a DMR team to last chance next week to get the natl qualifyer, but right now they are obviously focusing on squeezing as much points out of DCG/Mueller as they can, and I genuinely think everyone is giving them too much respect in an event that they are not treating as a priority in this conference meet.

Hope I at least boiled someones blood with my hot takes. Prove me wrong if I doubted you

I think the most interesting race or the "nastiest" race will be the 3k. The fresh St. Olaf boys vs. the studs from Carleton tired. It's going to be interesting to see how this race plays out. I wouldn't be surprised if it goes out in the low 4:30s for the lead pack.

One race I'm really looking forward to watch is the 600 - Klamm, Pugh, Chris Mueller & JCG's PRs this season are all within a half second of each other. Has the NASTY potential

I will eat an entire bethel jersey and live stream it if Klamm doesn’t win the 600 by 1 full second. JCG jr for 2nd and Supinski 3rd.

Im an ole and I think your predictions are biased

With heat sheets just released, I thought I'd reach out to the MIAC for conference- here's what I plan to film this weekend. Are there any other events that people would like me to get?

Friday:

5K

Mile Heats 2 & 3

800 All Heats

DMR

Saturday:

3000 Heat 2

600 Heat 3

1000 All Heats

4X400 Heat 2

Thanks for doing this! My grandma loved your videos last year.

Boldest prediction of MIAC history:

The prophecy today will be fulfilled.

It was once said that in Olaf's greatest hour of need, their hero will return in a brilliant light to save them. After losing cross country, the bubs from Northfield seem desperate. But never fear! The time for repentance has come.

Grant "Grant" Wintheiser will rise from his grave today and ride his silver stallion "babe" to Mac. He will then pound a dawg and drop a 3:49 mile, vanquishing his foes of past and present. As said by our ancestors, he shall then win the 5000 in record time and anchor a victorious dmr, before coming back for a final showing in the 3k tomorrow. Sadly, he will be sacrificing himself and will never run again after Saturday. He will save the Oles, but Grant himself will be sacrificed to cleanse Olaf's jv of their sins. There is nothing we can do to stop this from occurring, the prophecy has been passed down through the generations. Do not doubt, repent, and prepare yourself for the second coming!

I’ve heard that prophecy before but it was about Mac. The chosen one is gonna finally lead them out of the bottom half of the standings.

Why the heck didnt the Gallardos run 800? How does that help them at all????
