any thoughts on the national picture after conference weekend? Looks like some new contenders emerged compared to a couple weeks ago...
Some thoughts-
Guierrero from NJ seems to be coming around
Ruon from St. Olaf crushed the MIAC conference along with co-favorite Greeno and company
Mull from Wheaton dominated their conference meet with North Central packing it up well. North Central is a bet to be a trophy team but needs a great place at nationals out of their #1 runner-Spain
Stevens Point won their conference by just a few over an improving Oshkosh team. Oshkosh looks to be better this year with Kaul out front
Lacrosse looked very average...Should be better in a few weeks.
Dickinson huge win over Haverford!
Chenoweth and McKay 1-2 in the IIAC-both returning AA's (track 5k, CC)
Keene St. and So. Maine duked it out hard at their meet with Keene being too deep in the end
Christianson from Calvin is in the best shape of his career it would seem.
Allegheny will be tough at natties again.
National Predictions... in not much of an order after the first (3) :
Kosgei, Kaul, Christianson, Ruon, Mull, Nally, Dubois, Chenoweth, Faller, Schneider, Meyer, Towle, Moran, Russo
any other thoughts??
