In fairness, the pro runners here are largely B teamers. The A teamers are usually on the track circuit and are your guys like Rupp, Lomong, Lagat, Ritz, Sol, Derrick, etc. I'm quite certain if any of those guys were racing the club runners wouldn't have even been in sight.
You do know that Teg finished 2nd and ahead of Ritz in the U.S. trials last year, right?
Notice that I used the word "largely". This was intended to indicate that not EVERY runner in the field was a B teamer. Teg certainly falls under the not a B teamer category, even if he is likely beginning to enter the back end of the career.
