Also worth nothing Valby usually is not super personable during interviews and comes across very cold, almost as if she doesn’t want to be there. Even after her Nuttycombe win. Today was a different story and it was nice to see her be super excited and warm.
Also worth noting nobody owes you anything with regard to "interview personality," esp. in light of the abhorrent conditions at Nuttycombe.
It’s obvious. These people are racists who can’t accept that their favorite team lost to africans

not even close bro
Alex is literally the senior and has been the team leader since Isai left
everyone on the team can speak english, please don’t be racist towards my friends
To the Michigan alums who pushed Alex Gibby out of Ann Arbor years back (I had numerous Blue fans tell me he didn't do it the "Michigan way") .... guess what ? That dude can coach. 2nd season in a row a Harvard athlete grabs a W at the NCAA Championships. Left and right that program is producing high level performers.
Not really tbh, Mike's teams were expected to win and at worst get second. Where as Dave's women's team the goal was to podium and the men's team was to win or get second. I think having both teams be this good at the same time is very impressive especially considering NAU just got the lowest score to not win on the men's side and their women only lost by a point that came from a multitude of places
Honest question, how did Dave Smith find those guys and get them into school? It is a smart way to win but seems really out there.

Graham should leave school train for a time trial 10k. He ran 28:37 on grass, he can break 28 and get the standard, likely making the team.
And do what? Get a degree from NAU instead?

I wonder how many of the people who had Rupp on blast for running as a pro then coming back to college are here today defending the OSU guys doing the same thing. Wonder if the current crop had to pay back their travel expenses to become eligible like Rupp did?
I root for home grown teams and I'm not a big fan of Australians/New Zealanders/Irish transfers either. Your best bet on this end is going to be BYU or Colorado. Some people don't like to cheer for BYU as their athletes are generally older due to their mission trips but I personally don't think that's a big advantage.
Tuohy threw up around the 3k mark and fell back to 11th-12th and then gutted it out to 5th.
Graham Blanks: "Yesterday I told you guys that the smartest runner would win. Today, I ran like a dumb@ss".
Love this guy
Big congrats to Olivia Markezich. No NCAA distance athlete is more dependable when it counts across all seasons.
What a runner. 2024 should be a very good year.
Hi
Hola

Wow, a mid-atlantic at-large team sucks at nationals again. How many times will Princeton, Georgetown, or Villanova rob a spot at NCAA's from a more deserving team
you are CLUELESS. Georgetown got in at-large because they beat teams that qualified - it had nothing to do with what region they are in.
princeton got 11th, an excellent result
20th isn't bad for villanova - they were seeded higher but they beat Tennessee, colorado, gonzaga - many teams from the regions you think are so special.
Kenneth rooks with a huge finish for BYU. He had the fastest last K at 2:41 which was one second faster than Graham Blanks
