Wow. Emily Venters after being plagued with injury over the last couple years places 5th in her first real race back in 20:15. Ariel Keklak, previously a D3 runner smashes her D1 debut with a 20:13 for 4th, never breaking 21 previously. Simone Plourde placed 5th and previously ran for BYU running a 4:16 1500 last year... talk about some major improvements/ good transfers. Know it is still early in the season, but they completely destroyed Arkansas (who admittedly had an off day). Look to me to 100% be a team that should actually be nationally ranked, let alone a team that could contend with the top at nationals.
Poppy Tank did not run - 27th in March. That would be 4 runners for UT within 10 seconds of Gregory who I assume is pretty good. Will have to see as time goes by. For Arkansas sake I hope she is as the 5th was a minute behind her. Gear either DNS or DNF.
