Iowa State’s Betsy Saina who ran 31:15.97 last year to win while red-shirting got the win again this year in 31:37.22 but the big news is what didn’t happen. Oregon’s Jordan Hasay didn’t get the ‘A’ and more importantly didn’t get the ‘B’ as she just missed the 32:05 ‘B’ qualifier.

Quick Take #1: Hasay still did move into the top 5 all-time collegiately for women.

On Friday, 2012 Olympic steeplechase finalist Emma Coburn ran a collegiate leading 4:11.36 in the 1500 at Drake. Two days later, she ran a collegiate leading 9:28.26 in the steeple at Stanford.

However, the real ‘story’ may have been the second place finish and time for former Minnesota Gopher Jamie Cheever. The 26-year old now Team Minnesota USA runner took her pb from 9:51 to 9:29.14.

Quick Take #1: Last year Coburn opened up faster in the the steeple at 9:25 at Pre. That being said, Sunday’s time moved Coburn to #2 spot on the all time collegiate list as Coburn was a red-shirt last year and ran 9:37 in 2011.

The top 3 steeplers in collegiate history are as follows.

9:25.54        Jenny Simpson (Colorado)        06/12/09
9:29.26        Emma Coburn (Colorado) 4/29/2013
9:38.08        Anna Pierce (Michigan)         06/08/07

Quick Take #2: A big breakthrough for Cheever who started on the Minnesota soccer team as a freshman. Want to know more about  her? Check out her blog here. Team Minnesota USA bio here.

The switch to Alberto Salazar‘s coaching seems to be paying dividends for the 31-year old Moser who ran her best time since 2007 and picked up a needed ‘B’ qualifier in the process (4:09.34 seasonal best last year for her).
