Maybe because it has a limestone quarry on campus that was actively mined until 1953, is listed in the National Register of Historic places and stone minded from that site was used in the Washington Monument.
I'm sorry, is that supposed to make the name cooler? Lol
Stop the search right now, I saw Ryan Van Hoy in Hanover this morning.
I heard that Ben True is being seriously considered for the men's distance coaching role, can anyone confirm?

Does this mean he is that Kenyan national team coach?

I'm going to assume they made this decision pre-COVID and if you look at the program, they appear to be as skin and bones as possible. Not a deep roster on the women's side. Probably safe to say they won't be using a lot in scholarship money for the men.

What ever happened to Cal Berkleys 6th coaching/director of operations job? It's been open since May but never posted? Could be the right entry level opportunity for the right kid!
This probably explains why Cal hasn't hired:

If CAL track survives this thing, I don't think anyone would be surprised to see Hanna Peterson, currently of Arizona, show up there. Lockhart and her seem...close.
Still kind of surprised by how well our sport has held up through all of this so far. I thought way more programs or coaches would have been eliminated by now. Maybe there is just a lot more to come? Anybody hearing whispers?
Derek Gay to Taylor University as HC per LinkedIn. Was HC at Dillard Univ.
Timothy Thompson to Southwestern College (KS) as HC per LinkedIn. Was sprints coach at Arkansas State
People on this board would not believe that in the mid 90's Life University and Lubbock Christian (both NAIA) were as good as any school in college running. In fact Life University had a great track facility cut out of the woods with trails all around it. It was used in 1996 at the pre-Olympic training track for teams from all over world. Both Lubbock and Life were loaded with foreign runners and some American transfers, etc. Some legit talent.
There was a talent in the NJCAA and NAIA in the mid 80's to mid 90's. A lot of the NAIA schools went D2 in the mid 90's though. But both the NAIA and NJCAA had lots of foreign talent because it was easy to get visa's then and cheap, plus everyone was eligible.

Surprised there hasn’t been any chatter on potential replacements at Dartmouth. Who do people think?
All true. Life had as much distance talent for a few years as any college team in the country.

I remember competing against some of the throwers from Life in the late 90’s, they were very good. A couple finished top 9 in a loaded meet with ACC/SEC schools. I learned quick who Life was.
Weber State Throws Job?
