Just curious... is that some sort of rule ?

Ironic they post a podcast this week talking about the problems with NCAA XC and yet do not stream this race.
Brynn Brown will easily be in UNC top 5. She's the best runner on her team by far.
I totally agree, there has to be some reason the races are not being shown. My bet some stupid NCAA person sitting in an office who has no idea on the sport puts a ridiculous price tag on it and most likely some idiotic stipulations. You know it is just nuts they would not want as much as their product infront of viewers as possible and that is just not XC, all the other sports must be craving to get the people who live and die their sport some method to watch it and support it. Man how easy would it be to have a Nike swoosh or the McDonald's golden arches (you know what I mean) in the bottom corner of the screen, company gives someone like Flotrack the funds to pay for production, which cannot be a ton of dough, and they get to market themselves to us watching. Boy, so simple.
Looks like no Nuguse or Methner for ND.

Of course she is! I was referring to the race not her team!
Who is on Princeton and Mississippi's squad.
Mississippi had a solid top 3 plus a transfer in Cruz Culpepper last year.
Princeton had an Olympian in Ed Trippas is he still there?

It's a big field and it's going to be close in the men's race with NAU edging out ND for the top spot. Mantz also does not win with Wildschutt taking the victory on his home course with Nico Young and Mantz close behind.

How did you know so deep who was running well for ND or Ole Miss. I don't think they've had any major races. Have we seen Lalo Herrera in action this season?

Check you also missed Arkansas, Colorado and maybe a few other teams
Here are the new predictions for the women. The early assignments on the timing site and the FSU site did not match up and I took the teams off of the timing site. The picks below are from the box assignments on the FSU site so they should be correct.
Colorado will win comfortably. A close race for places 2, 3, & 4.

I think Utah’s top woman right now (by a small margin) would be Ariel Keklak? A third low stick like that should bump them say 50 points? I think having 2 transfers and an injury prone 5th or 6th year is fuzzing up their official rankings, so I’d put Utah as second or a solid third in this race. Rooting for their funky team assembly this year and hope they all stay healthy.
Trippas is running tomorrow. He won an open race a couple weeks ago pretty easily. He should run well tomorrow.
Princeton is very underrated this year
Where is Carmie Prinsloo the FR from Arkansas in your top 20?
doesnt know what he is talking about :) wrote:

She has been finishing well back of Gear and/or Gregory so far (40-60 seconds), so if Gear is really to be 14, Prinsloo could easily be outside of top 20. But this really is the day for Arkansas to show what they have.
This is a travesty, not having a live stream for Pre-Nats of all races. It’s the perfect opportunity for NCAA to go through all the technical issues/ filming issues (where to park the cameras, where moves will happen etc) before Nattys in September.
I just hope to God that we don’t get piss poor coverage like we have been getting the past couple years. With lack of Pre-Nats coverage, we will probably get shoddy coverage.

How fast is that course? Times are unbelievably fast
Not a bad showing from Arkansas. They've got time to improve on that result.

From what I have seen it is pretty flat, well maintained, and they are running early in the day obviously. A lot faster than the OSU course, faster than Zimmer I would think.
Will have to look at results and Nuttycombe results more carefully but I have to believe CO ladies will be moving up.
