The guy was with Clinger the whole way in 13th/14th place through 9K but he's listed as DNF. If he ended up finishing top 20 BYU gets on the podium. Did he pass out or something?

From what I know, bad injury.
He had some sort of energy/ heat/ whatever issue, he was barely walking into crawling with 400/500 to go. Really unfortunate, one of those situations where you see people crawling into the finish depleted of their energy systems

Sounds like heat exhaustion. Kind of like what Cheptegei had at world cross. Not a fun thing to go through in a race. Can happen to anyone. He's a tough guy for pushing his body that hard.
his teammate tweeted about seeing him laying on the ground

I don’t think it was heat, it was really nice at the course today apart from some wind. I don’t know what happened with him but I hope he’s aight.
