yEAH I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT oREGON LOST THIS RACE TO A CRAPPY vILLIANOVA TEAM I MEAN Roesler ran the fastest 800 in the world this year i think but sucked today. But at least she came back 1 hour later and ran a 52 flat 400 to give Oregon the National Leading time in the 4 by 400 on the Ladies side.

Pac12fan, you have got to be the most delusional and least
objecive poster on letsrun.
Villanova will never have the overall type of track program as Oregon. That is not possible for them to achieve. What the program can do is win xc championships (I believe 9 or 10 now). Like Oregon, Nova can produce runners who are successful on a national and international level, and Villanova does it with far fewer resources.
However, to say they are a crappy team shows an immaturity and childishness not seen since the Porkies movies.
You give credit to Roesler for coming back and running a great leg on the 4x400. Obviously she deserves that, but somehow it hasn't occurred to you that 3 of the Nova women were running their third race. If you and other Oregon fans saw Lipari's stretch run and can only make some snarky and belittling remarks, you only prove you know nothing about track.
Real track fans would understand and acknowledge the effort of those women today.
