Looking at entries, I pick Altier around 14:10, then Kelly ten seconds back, Lars and Bati around 14:25, Lueth 14:28, Turlington/Westerlund, McNeil around 14:33, Lynn/McNeil/Faltasek around 14:38, then a load of Oles and Tommies just under 14:50. Hot pick - Cavanaugh under 14:55 for a huge PR. Anyone else surprised they are doing two heats? The Tommies must be looking to run fast and not want the Ole bub army in the way.
Ole Social Media says Kelly is transferring to Montana State. Wonder how much better he’ll get running for the actual best steeple coach in the country? Most of his grads seem to run much faster at their grad programs.
You rushed to Letsrun to talk trash rather than congratulate him? Stay classy.
Carleton not having crazy upfront firepower on the national level makes their title even more impressive. Cross is lethal in both the 1500 and 5k but probably needs to drop a few more seconds in either to secure a nationals spot.Blanchard has made the past 3 track nats off of last minute efforts, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see her do it again. McManus on the fringe with another steeple to go this season. Preisser looking safe in the 10k unless there is an influx of fast times form conference races. Ward could always come out of nowhere in the coming weeks.
The Carleton women peak at the right time, so I'd imagine at least three of them shipping off to nationals. The MIAC women's 5k will be competitive as usual and (barring extreme heat) will likely be raced all out, so I imagine both Ole and Carleton times dropping there.

There are going to be like 60 people in the 5k. One heat would be chaos.
That’s what they had last year
Gabes gotta bring back the hair, man. The bald spot isn't it. hes 0/1 in nats qualifiers since the loss. He'll make it this year, but until he again looks like my dad did when he was taking too much acid, hes not taking home one of those little trophies. Boones got the look down and hes gonna get it done come beach time.
Dark Horse Ethaniel Marltel looking like he will run a HUGE time today at Tommie Twilight...
The REAL Steeple U entering a first time steepler today
Alright, it’s time for the real debate ladies and gamers. Who’s got the grippiest gangster in the Miac? Personally, I would like to see what Dave ricks is working with.
Alejandro Fiataroulo will be looking to defend his gangster

Why would he transfer there of all places? He could be the No. 1 steepler at most SEC & Big Ten schools. He'll be lucky to travel at Montana State. Not sure where he slots in for XC, but they were 13th in D1, not D3.

maybe for school? or because he'd prefer a challenge vs being towards the top of a mediocre/bad school. Also, it's tough to compare courses, but it looks like he could be in their top 5 in some races and should be top 7 most meets in CC so he definitely should make the traveling team.
Good for him
Stop replying to yourself it’s embarrassing
Hey man, That’s not even a real name on the results, check again. Bud…
Good predictions except you underestimated Lueth. Good thing the Tommies aren't in the MIAC anymore. They would decimate the Oles.
8 MIAC men under 3:52.2 and none of them safely in the national meet. Should be a LJ incredible 1500. Too bad they got rid of prelims to help prepare for Nationals.
Is 14 men under 15:00 a MIAC record? Very good to see some non-Oles on that list.
No. 15 men were under last year, but maybe we see one of the Johnnies slip under at conference. And the 1500 list was actually deeper last year too.
Indy ran well yesterday, but is now in the shadow of another super frosh, Nick Breuer. If Goss is the future, Breuer is now simply "HIM"
The future of the MIAC is bright, especially for young non-Northfielders.
I don’t make the rules…well actually I do. But rules are rules.
