Yes I'm aware they finished second. Dickinson was crushing CMU after four guys came in. Dickinson would've finished 2nd had their 5th not collapsed. I'm going to assume he'll be back for nationals. Though, I could be dead wrong.
As for Haverford beating them. I just like to see an upset.
Honestly, though, it's nationals. Crazy stuff always happens. People totally run awful and some run out of their mind. I even think there's even a chance Etown could finish as high as 15th and beat CMU or Haverford. If all their guys run awesome and a lot of people fall off. Not super likely, but nothing would surprise me.

whoa whoa whoa whoa - none of the teams at the regional race 'ran out of their minds.' if they perform well at natsit won't be a result of running out of their minds - it'll be well within what they are capable of.
Any idea what is up with Donatelli this fall? For a long time I thought he was just holding off to run a big one at nationals but his race at regionals cleared up that fantasy.

I agree. All top 5 teams ran rather predictably, with the exception of Dickinson's 5 man going down. I wasn't refering to last Saturday's race.
However, with regard to next weeks race, I've been to enough National champions to observe people having unbeleiveable races at Nats and teams totally running terrible. Every year one or two teams or a few individuals do something some people never expected, good or bad.
I'm just saying, you never know. That's it. Races happen.

It's nice of you to give credit to all those other fine athletes, but Paulsen is by far the best female runner in the region. What does she have ...about 5 AA awards by now? None of those others are in her league. Has anyone in the region been within 20 seconds of her other than VAndenhegl and her own teammates?
Not a great prediction there champ...
krussell passed out from dehydration... you dick. it was not his choice to drop out. he was unconscious. he goes hard every time he races. im sure he knows it was dumb to put himself in that situation, but i doubt very many of you have the balls to run until you literally pass out. think about stuff before you post.
im a big supporter of dickinson those guys are awesome to watch... im predicting podium! go get em!
Wishing and Predicting are different things...

Paulsen didn't run cause of sickness, we'll see it at nationals i'm sure
Who could predict she would not toe the line at regionals? She's still the best athlete in the region.

Allegheny 4th
Dickinson 6th
CMU 9th
Haverford 12th
Etown 25th
wow, that is quite generous. the region is not what it was in 2007.
Allegheny 3rd
Haverford 8th
CMU 12th
Dickinson 22nd
Etown 28th
well dickinson obviously blew it for me, haverford and CMU basically flipped and Etown didn't beat quite as many as I hoped. So besides Dickinson blowing up I'd say I did alright
