The cool thing about BYU is that they don't even try to bring in 1 international athlete to boost their team. I don't know of anyone who they even brought in as transfers.
Everyone is recruited out of high school, mostly from UTAH, and then developed over time.
When the women had a bad year last year, they didn't panic and try to bring in transfers and internationals to get back to the top. They simply just put in WORK to improve.
quite a day for BYU. as if two National Championships today wasnt enough, two of the four girls NXR winners today are BYU recruits. so they won both NCAA championships while their recruits were dominating their respective high school fields, including a mind blowing 15:50 XC 5K run by an athlete whose brother and father were also stars at BYU.
so the pipeline continues. and Mormon haters go home devastated.
