NCC puts 3 under 25 with two more very close in their first 8k, and Williams has reasonable showing at a 6k. The rest of the top 5 teams didn't race this weekend.
In other news, word on the street is Padgett accidentally ingested some bread and is vomiting heavily.
Padgett needs to understand that real men only drink Smirnoff ice. Raspberry.
This thread is about as active as Pat Horan's sex life
If anybody has doubts about Pat Horan's sex life, they need only check their watch at eight minutes to 5:00 for reassurance.
Irish Foreign exchange student NCC just picked up, his name is Jacob O'Paulus, he has a sick PR of 14:19 in the 5k....

Flotrack looks stupid (to the few who care about DIII). NCC ranked what, 7th? 33 second spread with the top guy in the low 24:30's. St Olaf and Eau Claire better start blood doping. Then again, it's early and courses vary.
Speaking of, Eau Claire and St Olaf face off next week at Olaf, should be interesting

Don't be so soon to forget.. NCC had some very impressive PRs last year as well. St. Olaf showed last fall that PRs don't win you races.
Who's in NCC's top 15 and how is their team looking so far?
Or worse, alumnus Alex Strenta will wash away the competition in a river of tears.
I gots the shotgun, you got the briefcase.....all in the game, though, right?

Isaac Jensen out of Luther just stubbed his toe hard enough to go to the ER. Probably broken. Not looking great for championship season. Will that take them out of the running for 3-4-5 at nationals? Obviously NC and Olaf are top two, but without Jensen, Luther might drop back even further.
Are you serious? Luther top 5?

You were 2/10 until you got a serious reply. That brought you up to like 6/10. Pretty good.
This has to get some discussion. One of them ran 24:34 in his first 8k ever.

They'll still be probably going to nationals as individuals if they don't go as a team. They will be making a major impact in d3 as freshmen.
How many other sub 9 high schoolers have gone d3 recently? I think Coby Horowitz was.

Think he'll make a run for top 5? Thing I hate about times (personally and others) in cross country is that there is Griak (very hilly) and then another course that's an 8km long pancake. Interesting they chose D3/Robert Johnson
Eau Claire over St Olaf. Called it! Probably under a different name :) Thorson right behind Wintheiser
Both teams didn't run their full top 5 so this was a pretty even match up. I think Eau Claire has a serious shot at the overall title this year, especially since they seem not to emphasize running fast early in the season, but I'm not sure what Olaf's coaching is like. The Blugold invite and Brooks invite should be interesting to watch, with Central, NCC and Olaf racing at least one of those, amongst other ranked teams also.
St Olaf was missing their #2 runner from last year who was 9th at NCAAs. If he runs you can subtract about 20 from Olaf's team score. Who was Eau Claire missing? I don't think it was an even matchup.
