Both the men's and women's races are going to be stacked. This year's field may be the best ever and it will serve up a lot of points because you may have more ranked teams in this field than any of the Pre-Nats races due to dividing them up.

Yes, the team added to the two-week penalty (that included this race) and extended it a week so that it will cover next week as well. Thus LaX will not run the Wisco/Addidas Open.
watch for surprises!
Runners are so F***in weirdp
osu will be better.
The sad thing about Roy Griak this year is that UW-La Crosse wouldn't be at Griak in the DIII race
Why? They're not even that good.

Oklahoma isn't going to be there.
It will be a soggy mess like every other year.
Funny they're on the list, but it's not on their schedule (Wisconsin is). Oh well.
Course may be a bit soggy but all the better for some real XC action, not grass tracks that many teams race on early season.
Adam Fuerst from Crown College for the win. He was the last finisher to cross the line last year in the DIII race, I think he has good odds this year. He did come across the 1200 mark last season in a 3:57, that is soooo fast
Soggy may be a big understatement. There are flood warnings for most of central Minnesota right now. I haven't seen the course today but the amount of rain that Minneapolis has gotten the last few years, plus the fact that the course is soggy even when it seems like it shouldn't be, and I think 30 minutes might not be that bad a time tomorrow.
Yeah, fortunately it was dry today, but there could be some showers tomorrow.
