I thought it was worth noteing that the top two finishers in the Ivy League meet yesturday were both from Oregon. Maag is a former Jesuit runner and Canaday is from Sheridan I believe. Amazing too since he was second AND entered in the Marathon Trials for next weekend. That kid is so talented. I'm interested to see what he pulls out in NYC. He never has a bad race is seems.

Sage went to Newberg High School. That was an incredible finish yesterday, watching sage and maag roll down the flat section of VCP side by side...

Phenomenal Crew! Are you telling me that Martin Smith couldn't land any of these guys at Oregon except Wall? Did he even try? In state tuition is not that much, he could have given most of these guys books and recruited them like bloody hell. With just an all Oregon team they should have been competitive at the national level.
Something tells me that if Vin was coaching there that year all those seniors would have been at Oregon and the juniors coming in the next year. We already know that Klotz and Stoutenburgh did.
Actually, Smith didn't get any of those guys.
Scott Wall's older brother Alec did go to Oregon, but, as the Smith situation unfolded, he left - and ended up at Dartmouth. Mike McGrath also went to Oregon, then left, then went back.
Scott Wall did not matriculate directly to Oregon, but continued training with Alberto and Galen until spring of what would have been their freshmen year. When Smith left, both Scott and Galen enrolled at Oregon.
I don't have anything bad to say about Martin Smith; it is certainly a fact that there was a plethora of in-state talent during his time in Oregon (Alec Wall's class also included McGrath, Joaquin Chapa, and Lauren Jesperson) and few if any chose to become Ducks.
sage was recruited by Univ of Portland, but not by U of O -apparently rojo had a better deal - is sage gonna skip regionals??
