He also got beat by Molinaro head to head in the 8, and by Popek (800 sleeper with that 400 speed) in the second half of his 1500/800 double at cciws.
Also worth noting that Campbell, Escher, Garcia, and Marquardt were 5, 6, 8, and 18th at cross. Their range seems better.
Sebhat: 1:49.40, 3:44.85, 8:21.30, 24:10.20 (Oshkosh)
Campbell: 1:54.84, 3:44.74, 8:10.55, 24:31.30 (Oshkosh)
Esher: 1:52.31, 3:45.29, 8:21.96, 24:32.60 (Oshkosh)
Garcia: 1:54.89, 3:45.71, 8:37.07, 24:34.20 (Oshkosh)
Marquardt: 1:50.93, 3:43.24, 8:06.56, 24:45.80 (Oshkosh)
Not so sure about Sebhat being "not strong." The double makes it interesting, but if it's hot and gets tactical I wouldn't doubt his ability to run a 400m race, especially since the 1500m final is first.
800m is likely an event he entered to scrape up some points for the team competition.
What are the odds that LaMere, Thorson, Escher, and Black gets beat? Kind of unusual that the defending champ returns in each of the distance and mid-distance events
Steeple predictions
1. Jordan Carpenter, Oshkosh
2. Luke O'Connor, Tufts
3. Mitch Ryan, Cortland State
4. Adam Togami, Wabash
5. Jarred Iacovelli, Cortland State
6. Jaryd Flank, Muhlenberg
7. Jared Schatz, Messiah
8. Keith Sands, Augustana
Your east coast weenie is sticking a little far out on this one, don't ya think?

The Jared brotherhood will unite in a pack and sweep.
Lol you should probably sober up before posting again because you sir are drunk. First off the Tufts guy has a small chance of sneaking into an AA spot we are talking 7/8 no chance at 2nd. The only team that has a shot at 2 AA is North Central. The fact that you have none of their 3 guys scoring just shows your lack of knowledge. 2 guys at 9:03 and under they honestly could put 2 in the top 3 or 4. Cortlands second guy won't make finals. In all honesty I think Sands is the favorite with Togami also in the conversation. We all know that Carpender doesn't show up when the pressure is on so we will most likely see a guy win who hasn't broken 9 yet.
Other notables for AA Pretty much anyone that makes finals because shit happens.
1)Togami
2)Sands
3)Adlefinger
4)Schatz
5)Hoffman
6)Carpender
7)Ryan
8)Pataky
Is Deko Ricketts healthy? Hasn't raced since UAAs and was firmly on the bubble this past week. Same for Donson Cook-Gallardo, hasn't raced since Drake.
Word on the street is Cook Gallardo has some sort of stress reaction.
Heard Ricketts has been battling mono
It's most likely not his decision, but the coaches. I don't know why people are getting so butt hurt about what the coaches at Eau Claire decide to do with their athletes. Seems to have worked for them.
Scenario 3: Thunder 12 laps into 10k when Lamere has solid lead, delayed until Friday, he wins the rerun, but is too fatigued to compete well in the 5k.
heat sheets?
They'll be out when they're out
they're out
Wartburg doesn't seem like they're quite ready to host this meet. WHY WOULD YOU HAVE THE TSHIRT LINE GO OUT ONTO THE INDOOR TRACK WHEN YOU KNOW THERE WILL PROBABLY BE THUNDERSTORMS FORCING EVERYONE INSIDE.
Moving up the events two hours given the chances of evening thunderstorms was probably a good idea, but maybe they should have considered that the 10k will be contested at 3pm when it will 85+ degrees and sunny. Why not move it to 10am before the start of the decath?
St. Olaf did it again, got 4 out of 5 guys into the 1500 final. Impressive.
Lots of talent in that event.
10,000 will probably go very, very slow until the last 1000m. When LaMere got the national record at Stanford, I read he ran his second 5000 in around 14:04. A week or so later he ran 14:19 just in front of Jake Campbell, not sure if he was tired or banged up, or just went through the motion to get a qualifying time. I'd think he'd want to break 14:00, but don't see that happening in the final!

Word was Ian was sick heading in to the 14:19. He wasn't really challenged at conference so I guess we'll see this afternoon if that 14:19 was a one off and he's healthy or if he's had some issues.
