29:29 is the 10th fastest 10k?

I feel so much faster now.

Nice, unique list. Gives you some sense of just how deep some schools have been historically. There are a lot of pretty solid programs out there with school records in these events that are slower than the 10th best times by some of the powerhouses.

Another update in the 800M and 1500M with Georgetown making its presence felt..

1500m

Indiana Univ

#10 - Scott Williams 3:42.11

let's make it clear, so we are all on the same page here: you are saying; these lists represent the "10th best time on their individual school's all time list"?

I would think that the #10 time for the mile/1500m at Kansas U. might still be under 4 minutes.

Once again, this is a compilation of the NCAA Men's Division I 10th Best Performance List, taking every school's 10th best performance all-time and just making a Top 10 list from those individuals.

Indiana was one that only list Top 5, so great addition!

Kansas only went 5 deep, but 5th was already 3:42.8 and only two sub-4:00 milers in history..

Villanova would have to be 'all over' the 800m/1500m list. (to be fair, you would have to use mile conversions for all of the greats prior to the 80's, when they started running the 1500m in most meets).

Good point about Villanova, they were one of the first teams I researched, but their media guides and teamnova websites are lacking in the statistical department. If anyone has any more insight, feel free to add..

Still waiting on Michigan's Top 10 lists, as I am positive they will impact the 800M & 1500M lists.

alot of schools, track and field websites will have a 'top 5 or top 10' of alltime. (or they should)for track events.

Partial list for Villanova

Their media guide is not a very good source.

Do you mean 10th best performance or performer? If it's performance then Tony Waldrop of UNC (who still holds the NCAA indoor mile record at 3:55) ran ten consecutive sub-4 miles back in the early 70s.

Read the thread before you post.

Eastern Michigan

Desiletes, Nowitzke in steeple

Boaz in 5k, 10k

Georgetown's #10 in the 5k should now be 13:54.85 by Frank McConville in '84.

This is due to Fleet Hower's 13:51.72 earlier this spring.

after this thread has dropped off the front of the page, someone should compile a list of all the idiotic responses and send them to HR departments across the country so they can know which schools not to hire from. So far we have distinguished alums from UNC, Eastern Michigan, and UCSB chiming in to represent their schools brilliantly. Keep it up, guys.
