1. Cortland - I have them at about 50 pts.
2. NYU - Look for Maher's top ten finish to create too big a deficit for Geneseo or SLU to over come late in the race. NYU will hang with cortland through three runners but end up losing by 15.
3. SLU - They have the talent to beat Geneseo and I think they'll do it by a slim margin.
4. Geneseo - I really like their team but the best Chichester can do, in my estimation, is thirteenth. Unless someone can pop a race for the Blue Knights (which could happen; maybe Dolan, Ruebens or Chichester himself) their pack will get broken up but Fox and other Saint runners. <5 points.
5. TCNJ - Gurriero and Bocachino will finish high enough to negate Heymann and Bell/Hodge while creating a lead after too runners. I see Rodkawitz as their third runner and Kopniki is the Jon Phillips of '08 as he sneaks onto All-Region team. My big prediction is that they will finish too far behind Geneseo to ride the reputation of a strong Atlantic region to nationals.
6. Ithaca - It makes sense to me that Hodge struggled at Hamilton. He likes to run from behind and the consensus was that if you didn't get out to the front on that day it was impossible to make up ground. I'm a fan of Shea. I'm glad to see him racing well again.
7. Plattsburgh - They won't be as close to Ithaca as they would like but they'll prove me wrong and finish out the season solidly, poised for a run at the top five next year.
8. Rochester - Ithaca and SLU will get their revenge despite a good effort by a blue collar team.
9. Fredonia - I don't know much about them but I do know a lot about the other teams left and they all look about the same as the Blue Devils sans a runner like Tom Williams.
10. Rowan - They'll be motivated to make the long trip worth while.

how could you honestly think nyu will be that close to cortland? 15 points? come on give cortland a little more credit
Josh Henry pounded a Mucho Burrito at Garcia's last night, looks like he's out of Regionals due to food poisoning.

Or give NYU a little more...
I would be astounded if NYU ran BTTW this weekend. If they have a good controlled pack run that lands them in the top five, they've got a Nationals trip sewn up, based on their very solid wins at Oberlin and UAA. The Violets can run a safe race this week and go for broke next week.
Same reasoning applies to Cortland, of course. No need to get busted up in a trials race. The one that counts is next weekend, not this.
[I remember that Tim Hale, who won Nationals when coaching at UR, was a big big fan of having an easy, safe course for the Regional meet, precisely so the qualifiers could run Natls with fresh legs. Given that >95% of the qualifiers will be the same, regardless of the course, why not make the trials course as easy as you can?
[I don't know anything about this Regionals course. Easy? Hard? Snow-covered? Muddy? Anybody have details?]
Sorry, as I said substitute anyone in the 5 spot...Greenlaw, O'brien, Scrafford, Derusso, whoever...5 in the top 10, with their top 3 not running all out.
Nice analysis of the SLU night life Mr. Fat Bag. Spoken like the son of SLU's first ever All-American.

It will be a great race if a snowmobile is leading the race instead of a cart or bike. Better yet a dog sled.
I'd so be down if they held a race on the coldest day at SLU. Who's with me?
ahahahah 1000 :)
the shwamway residence!
In 2004 it was in the teens to low twenties during the mens race.
2004, at 7am it was 8 degrees. not sure of the overnight low, but the course was frozen solid. fastest course i've ever run on
but what about spac??!!11 You can't tell me running up ferndale didn't propel you to greatness
