Yeah... 3 teams for the men and four for the women. Pretty lame. The west hits 3,10,11 and we only get 3 next year. West women put 4 in the top 10 (w/our 5 at 13) and will lose a spot for next year.

Way to go "Big Red Machine" no one believed you guys would be top 3 except all the Alums. Doing the program proud. Hup Hup
Chico is a one man show and is no better than 10th if I remember correctly...
Third place today wasn't to bad then. With 4 all-Americans and 32 Pts from second .. Awesome job to western also .
I gotta give a shout out to the Western team. That might be the most impressive performance I've ever seen, considering where those guys were a year ago. Take a look at Track results and look at guys like Loren Ahonen, Sean Brown and Tyler Rasmussen, and look where they were today, then add in that Iain was hurt early in the year. Jen should be a unanimous coach of the year.
Congratulations to Scotty Bauhs and all Chico State athletes!
Western State and Grand Valley!!!!
I laugh at all you morons that didn't put Western in the top 5 and Grand Valley even in the top 10.
Kenyan's suck on snow. Queens is going to be good, but not yet. Boo Harding. Did Alaska even make the trip? Mines? Mankato?
GGGGG
VVVVV
SSSSS
UUUUU
Below are the rankings going into the NCAA II Championship for the Central Region Schools and the results from today's meet.
Ranked 1st Adams St -finished 1st
Ranked 5th Western St - finished 2nd
Ranked 10th Minnesota St - finished 8th
Ranked 11th Co School of Mines - finished 9th
Ranked 19th Metro St - finished 14th
Not ranked UCCS - finished 17th
Rankings or results???????????
It is truly too bad that western doesn't show up to race any other day of the year...but they've carved out a nice little niche as perpetual "underdogs." if adams had the team that won at the griak, it wouldn't have been as close as 21 points. then again, if the meet had been in fla., maybe adams and western would've finished third and fourth....?
Maybe the race was actually run today in Slippery Rock, PA just as it has been scheduled for on November 22nd since last year. Results are results...for everyone.
Woulda, coulda, shoulda, if's, but's....it never ends.
Columbus State University killed the other schools at d2 nats

This is such a huge turnaround for the WWU women! 10th place! I couldn't be more proud of both teams!
The WWU team plus one castaway are stumped as to who you are. Send one of us an email or give a call and we'll let you know how things went.
ha, I didn't realize I was causing you all so much confusion. My apologies.
B-choad.

It was a great day for the GNAC.
1. Three women's teams in the top 10!
2. Two men's teams in the top 11
3. Five men earned all-american honors
4. Four women earned all-american honors
5. Another victory for Pixler
6. Parisien was the top true freshman in the men's race
7. Pixler, Cheseto, Porter, and Larson all got on stage for top 15
I'm going out on a limb and saying that the GNAC now ranks second (albeit a distant second) to the RMAC.

Nice work, Dubbya! If that is really you...
Is this the first time ACU has raced nationals in the cold or something? I don't remember an ACU team falling apart like they did yesterday ever.
ACUs failure can likely be attributed to their new coach.

That's a weak response. Burroughs has done well. It's tough taking over a successful program.
Derek Hood's 1st year his team placed 8th.
The cold KO'd the Kenyans.
Charles White ran a great race for a Frosh.
I may have agreed with you on Burrough's being a "sub par" coach but ACU's team is vast majority kenyan and almost all the kenyans in both men and womens races were "neutralized" with the snowy/cold conditions not just ACU's. The only runner who would be used to the cold on the ACU team (charles white) ran a great race for all american & was the second true freshman in the whole race, the coaching staff is at least doing something right.
