Forget the race...I bet Palmer is excited to have his first big recruiting weekend of the year. Who needs official visits in the fall when you can just wait until SEC and recruit other people's roster. I bet he's stoked - has questionnaires ready, burner phone charged and girls with a list of targets for the weekend.

I took a closer look at Lemngole's 14:40 from March 3023. There were 44 finishers in that race, 40 of whom clocked times ranging from 15:09--18:12. Rather than tuck into the pack and run a respectable 15:XX, she hung with the leaders (running even splits, as you noted) and didn't blow up. Still uncertain about Olemomoi but I'm starting to think Lemngole will stick to Valby and ease away in the end. Throw in a world class steeple time and I'm hooked.
1 Lemngole
2 Valby
3 Olemomoi
4 Noe
5 Asekol
Here is Lemngole rabbiting a Diamond League steeplechase
She has not shown this level of fitness yet in XC. It will be interesting to see if it pops out now that it is championship season.

Thanks for posting the video. I did not realize Lemngole paced the same DL race where Constien injured her knee and Coburn fell.
But yes, you have to be pretty fit to be asked to pace the world record holder at a sub 9 minute steeple pace for nearly 2k.
Certainly makes the season interesting. I wonder which event she will run during indoors?

Arkansas Preview - Megan Elliot is the coach of the W

Assuming Mazza-Downie is in fine shape I’m thinking it’ll go something like:
1. Parker Valby
2. Doris Lemngole +1
3. Hilda Olemomoi +15
4. Judy Kosgei +20
5. Amelia Mazza-Downie +40
6. Flomena Asekol +40
7. Paityn Noe +45
8. Elise Thorner +55
9. Sydney Thorvaldsen +55
10. Joy Gill +60Ole Miss has 2 who could crack the top 10 (Ryann Helmers, Loral Winn). Could also be interesting to see how Silan Ayyildiz does for South Carolina.
For teams, probably 1. Florida 2. Alabama 3. Arkansas
Alabama is really weak on their 5th woman but I doubt the field is deep enough for that to knock them out of 2nd.

Yeah, I guess this is her opener. Looking at WA she was racing track into September, had a long season.

Alabama has Mckenzie Hogue who was 29th at Joe Piane, not that far back of Gapes on NC St or Malken of AL. She did not run in their later meet though. Agree she would be strong enough as AR's 4/5 are not that strong either (at least so far). With Mazza-Downie, roughly FL 30-35, AL 45-50, AR 55-60. FL with 4 in top 10 and Wilson in top 15. Helmers of Ole Miss could sneak in top 10 - she was right with Thorner at Nuttycombe.

Hogue is not on the start list so I’m guessing she’s dealing with injury or something.

That might make it interesting for 2nd as their next option seems to be 25 sec or so back of Machan. So maybe 1 FL 2 AR 3 AL. No Mazza-Downie could cost FL 20 points and make it interesting all the way around.

1 Lemngole

3 Valby + 14

Hogue for Alabama is on the list if you scroll all the way to the bottom

could be fast course...60s, dry, not terribly humid

Who do you guys have winning on the men’s side individually and team wise? I think Yego and Shearer as well as Abdalla and Kiprop can all make a run for it. I do like Arkansas’s team chance after their phenomenal race at Pre-Nats, but I think Alabama will still make a run for it

Time predictions for this race? Will we see 18:25 like last year?

I can't believe it is as fast as that course of last year but I guess we will see. But many oportunities to practice running the tangents.

John Anderson and Carrie Toffelson will provide the coverage on the SEC Network.

Obviously fl v al ladies interesting, but I wouldn't be shocked with a big run from Noe. She's growing in confidence and has a nice group of leaders to run with.
