Props to Portland, very impressive.
WCC Championships just got a lot more interesting! -
How does NAU's score put them in the race history? That's a good low score...

Portland? Why aren't we all praising Michigan. I've never seen a split-squad strategy pay off in such a big way. Incredible.

idk, having second thoughts about picking Stanford pre-season though haha
their top3 WOW 4-5 faded towards the end which may add up more over 2 more K, 3 top guys will be very strong though for sure. -

Lowest since 2010. But this is the most impressive men's run ever at this meet considering this race didn't really start getting big until 2011/2012. For reference, there were 20 ranked teams in today's field and 21 teams total in the 2010 race. -
Did wisco tempo their own meet?

It will be heartbreaking if Allie O is injured again.
-
What happened to AllieO?
-
No they did not. Unfortunately they did their very best.

That's what we'd all like to know I think. She finished 9th, well behind Kurgat. Maybe the past 2 years of injury has finally caught up with her? Or she is training through this meet (due to missed training due to injuries)? She's a massive talent, so she'll be back in quick order - if not by XC Nats, then by the time Outdoor track rolls around. -
That NAU Team is impressive. I think they are the overwhelming Favorite going to Nationals. Congrats to NAU and Portland as well. They run impressive.

Big Sky Conference with 2 teams in the top 8. Let's go mid-majors!!!!

Full men's analysis is now up. We tell you who choked and who surprised.

Probably not injured since she finished pretty high up. -
She probably fell at the start. Through 2k she wasn't even in the top 40. She looked to have moved up steadily at every marker. Of course, that's a guess. Maybe the kid had an off day. No worries. She will still win NCAAs in November.
-
I think we see AllieO go again against New Mexico in 2 weeks at the MW Conference meet. So we'll probably learn more at that time.
