Tuohy and Steelman both have minor Achilles injuries. Contrary to some posters on here, the coach is being careful with both at this point. No need to push it this early in the season.

ECCENTRIC HEEL DROPS!!!

^^THIS^^the only thing that worked for me after a decade of Achilles problems.

There are now 3 pages on a thread about Touhy being injured because she hasn’t raced yet and a bunch of anonymous experts piling on the NCAA women’s championship coach. This is such b.s.

Can’t we redirect all this energy to the incredible performances being posted this indoor season?! Seriously, celebrate what’s happening every weekend instead of speculating with no facts and bashing a great program.

Not sure why this is posted as a reply to me as I did not start this thread.

But to answer your question, there is another thread which has been going for a while (which I also did not start).

Not directing my post specifically at you, I’m simply commenting on the thread in general. And yes you’ve posted a number of outstanding performances in the thread you referenced which is great.

Again...you wouldnt be saying this if we were talking about the NFL or college football? People talk and speculate wildly about every detail and coaching move around march madness or really any level of college football. Did we sign something that track and filed needs to stay underground and not generate spirited conversation? And BTW, where is all the indignity about talking about elite, college-aged women when a thread about Mu is started? Hmm, wonder why so protective of KT?

Yes. This is a typical article addressing why a top player was out. There are multiple threads about Mu dropping out. People are blasting her.. she is an Olympic gold medalist. There are hundreds of people claiming that she can never be as good as the top Americans in the 1500. A few rabid Tuohy fans would lose their minds if something negative were to be posted. There is nothing overly negative in this thread, just speculation about injury and some opinions about coaching.

Didn’t Hannah steelman graduate at the end of fall semester?

She did, as did Kelsey Chmiel. But both are still shown on roster.

Kelsey Chmiel definitely didn't graduate lol. She's only been there for 5 semesters (she's mid "junior" year), that would be insanely early to graduate, would mean she took essentially double the course load every semester since freshman year. She's only one grade above Tuohy, who is a true sophomore

oh contraire - she did in some sort of Animal Sciences "pre Vet" program.

Their success in XC doesn't mean it's not a hope you stay healthy program. They have signed some monster classes and have crazy depth due to those classes. Henes can afford to burn through some kids. Especially the in state female talent that foolishly commits every year. That's the NC State philosophy.

Probably taking graduate courses now. Still has two years of eligibility after this season.

Marlee Starliper does seem missing from the entries posted at this time for the Camel City Invitationals. Unfortunate for her.

Starliper has been dealing with recurring stress fractures since her senior year of high school with an achilles issue thrown in. It is obviously very frustrating for her because she wants to train and compete but every time she gets close it flare up again. If I had to guess I think this is an issue that will go away in her early 20s. But obviously no athlete wants to be unable to compete.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a transfer back home to Messiah, go for a D3 national championship, and then take things from there.

If the scholar/athlete brings a pile of AP courses and other types of college credit for high school courses, plus takes summer courses, it's not difficult to complete a bach degree in 2 years of college. In Chmiel's case your 5 semesters + 2-3 summers + other college credits. In her case, it also helped that she knew exactly what she wanted to study - pre-Vet. Now she can either start Vet school, or enroll in a related Masters program that will strengthen an eventual application to Vet school.

With the 5 (even 6-7) years an athlete spends in college, it's amazing what can be achieved academically with an understanding of the system and careful planning.

According to Lulu Black’s Strava, Katelyn and Hannah are running workouts with her right now. Probably are easing back into it to be ready to go for ACCs and Nats.

Happy to hear they’re running and not just cross training at this point.

She was a top student in high school, so she likely went into college with a lot of credit under her belt. Kids that take a lot of AP courses can go into college as mid-sophomores.
