WAKE FOREST IS BACK...TOPS VIRGINIA TECH AND FSU FOR 5TH AT ACC'S!!

Hayes is in his 5th or 6th year and they're finally in the top half of conference cross country being all distance.

Wow.

Pretty sure it is his 3rd year and not all distance but keep dreaming.

You’re joking right?

John Hayes arrived in August 2016. That would mean has been there for two years and two months. Apparently you did not achieve academic standards up to par with Wake Forest, as basic Kindergarten math seems to have been an educational roadblock for you.

Ladies showed up well too. Looks like the program moving forward.

Good run. I remember watching them placed 3rd at NCAA back in 89

So now finishing 5th is back?

But didn't Rupp go home devastated after finishing 6th at Chicago?

5 is back.

6 is going home devastated.

Got it.

What’s the deal with Wake frosh? Rumor is that he had some sort of ASICS deal no? Lots of posts on his Instagram of all sorts of ASICS kit.

Anyone have the skinny on the Miami team? I know they are unusually bad every year but this seems to be the worst? Not sure why they even have a men's team. Does the ACC require a minimum number of men's sports?

Compared to late 80's/early 90's...no, they're not back. If you compare to where Wake Forest has been the past ten years, then yes, they are back.

They have a lot of young talent, and their top guy was a freshman who placed 2nd.

Great to see Wake on the rise. Coach Hayes changing culture and bringing in good talent. Will be a force to reckon with in very near future.

Where's that Wake dude from? Is he American?

That frosh is called Zach Facioni, a freshman from Australia. He ran with the Sydney Running academy (SRA) who were endorsed by Asics, he has some great 1500 wheels too.
