NCAA DMR Qualifying

What about the other heat, mostly Syracuse and Virginia Tech.

I just get a blank screen when trying to see the start lists

Try Here:

http://flashresults.com/2017_Meets/Indoor/02-23_ACC/starts.pdf

The start list by event on the meet page is not populated. But near the top of the meet page on flashresults there are 4 blue boxes with links. The last one is start lists and goes to the link page above. You can see all heats / events with participants including both DMR's.

It's confirmed, Syracuse is not trying to get the qualifier. Their team is Bastien, Lovell, Palamar and Hubbard. No Knight on the team. They will simply try to come 1st or 2nd.

you're confirming this based on their lineup or you have a source?

No source. Simply the lineup.

palamar has run faster than knight over a mile this season...

Also, looking at the MPSF. I think it unlikely any qualifiers will come from this meet. heres why: UCLA they don't have the man power based on what guys have done individually this year.

Oregon: based on their press release from earlier it seems to me like they are trying to get some last minute qualifiers in individual events aka haney. they really have no reason to run the dmr, they're safe.

Washington: they don't have the manpower, gilbert can run multiple legs

stanford: they're safe already and have so much trouble with injuries that i don't see why milt would risk an unnecessary race.

Colorado: i don't think they care

BYU: the one team with a shot, they fell short last week at Notre dame in a race that was set up very well. I think it unlikely they will be able to chase the time with other teams who aren't that interested or don't really field their best lineup.

LSU: xavier carter apparently will be running the 400 leg, KD on 8 or 12, race day decision.

Syracuse will have to do it on their own though. Va Tech has a solid lineup but no their top one so don't think they are going to try and better their time

i don't think syracuse will go for a qualifier, historically they have never really cared, why would they start?

Cal could run a possible qualifier; They chased Oregon to a good mark last year at MPSF and running with BYU might again this year

1) They have a 46. 400 meter runner,

2) Eugene Hamilton has only run 1:51 this year but has multiple sub 1:49s in his past;

3) Thomas Joyce has run 3:58 this year,

4) & they have a freshman who has run 7:58 + Corcoran who has only run 4:05 this year but was sub 4 last year

Moreover they have only competed in two meets this year so they are just getting race sharp

New Mexico just ran 9:30.07 converted at mountain west.

Virginia Tech 9:31.05. Moves ahead of UTEP

New Mexico picks up a bullsh1t altitude conversion at their conference meet to go 6th on the list, LSU out

Georgetown on the bubble. Right?

BTW: Syracuse 4th at ACC. That's really bad...

...and UTEP next in line. UTEP may end up regretting not putting a good team/effort at Conference USA. They didn't win the team championship anyway, so it was a real waste.

They may still end up at NCAA... who knows...

Norte Dame and Clemson run 11:02 out of nowhere for a top 10th and 11th qualifying time (for now).

Saw that Elmar Engholm was on the 12 leg for the New Mexico DMR, how is that guy still in college?

Nova runs 10:00 and Georgetown runs 10:03

Georgetown stays on the bubble in 12th

To 12345678:

If you thinks its so easy to run 9:30 at 5000 feet altitude then why don't you bring your team and try it. New Mexico ran a hard clean race and uses the altitude conversion that is mandated by the NCAA.

Elmar Engholm who led off the DMR redshirted one indoor season and is using his final season of eligibility. No funny stuff with this.

At MPSF's-

Colorado wins the women's race running 10:58.68, just ahead of Stanford at 10:59.82 (per

).

On the men's side, Cal wins in 9:34.11, with UCLA in 2nd at 9:37.90.
