Any news when NAU will post their entire Mens and women’s team rosters and their racing schedule ? we know they got a few transfers and incoming freshmen runners, but who did not return.

NAU returns Nico, Drew Bosley, and Santiago (18th last year?), plus Colin Sahlman, Kang Nyoak, Aaron Sahlman--if he gets healthy and fit (I would expect a redshirt at this point)--Aidan Barnhill, Aidan Puffer, and 13:27 transfer from Wake, Aaron Las Heras. So, the top five looks like Nico, Drew, Santiago, Colin, and Aaron, with Kang and maybe Gorgas or Puffer. They also add an 8:46 freshman.

My money is on Aaron never making their top 7 lineup for a meaningful xc race

If Aaron Sahlman is in NAU's top 5 at NCAAs they are in deep deep trouble. Hard to imagine them placing top 3 as a team if he's scoring for them.

How about the other Aaron (Las Heras)?

I disagree. Aaron will be top 5-10 at NCAA and NAU wins by 30 this year.

Most nxn/foot locker champs go on to have useful xc careers.
I also think he will redshirt '23 xc. _xzcvzxcvvvvv said same, but then put him in top 5. I'd take that top 5 and pop LasHeras in for Aaron. Puffer also do for a breakout.

Las Heras was one of Wake’s top guys last year. I’m guessing he’ll definitely be too 7 for them, and likely to 5.

There will be some meaningful influence from his brother, Coach & being the NXN champ

My money's on him never winning a collegiate race until NCAA d1 XC nationals his senior year.

My bets on Young, Bosley, Prosser, C. Sahlman, Las Heras guaranteed for the top 5. Nyoak is pretty favored for 6/7 considering his track improvements and then its a dog fight for that last spot.
Some of the guys who have been in the system for 3 years are probably anxious to get on a team before they graduate

Why are they honored? Is it for the obviously woke and pandering reason I'm thinking of?

would love to see Caleb Easton run some races this season. he was a highly touted runner but had a bad injury and missed 2, maybe even 3 seasons. he's busted his ass to make it back. i saw him listed in some "B" races last season but never in any of the top races.

All collegiate National champs teams were honored across all sports. But nice attitude.

it honored all NCAA Champions but lemme guess, you thought they were there because one of their players is gay. dude, I have gay friends who don't obsess over gay issues as much as narrow minded idiots like you.
my advice, get therapy or just come out of the closet already.

Here's one of their freshmen, Zach Munson. He swept the boys 800m, 1600m, and 3200m50

He swept the boys 800m, 1600m, and 3200mZack kinda gets lost in all the Heroes, Villains, Sahlman stuff but he's a great pickup for the Jacks. his times are consistently improving, the skies are the limits once he's up in altitude running under Coach Smith.
that said I wouldn't be surprised if he redshirts this year if only because NAU is so deep.
