Does Buffalo really deserve a regional? Do they almost guarantee snow and
cold? Is there a worse place the NCAA could have selected?
I don't mean this as a put-down to the Western NY mega city. It's just that everybody else gets a better experience than the one today. The only thing
worse would have been Syracuse. Why send all the eastern schools which
feature CC to Ontario for all intents?
Anywhere in the Northeast can be crap in November. It’s XC.

Lol there coach should be embarrassed for how he runs that program. Basically a sub-elite Kenyan training camp.

Pot, meet kettle.
Weather can be crap anywhere in the northeast, but Buffalo brings the lake effect snow into the picture. You're basically begging for bad weather there.
Bradley has to be the most surprising team out of these, right?

Unless there was a timing chip failure, one of Stanford's guys DNFd, thus the team going from 1st to 4th in the last mile.
Also, terrible air quality in Sacramento due to smoke from the Camp fire which has essentially destroyed the town of Paradise to the north.
anyone got more info on this?
also, yeah, can't imagine how bad it would be to run in that smoke.
While the smoke was nearly suffocating all day near San Francisco, according to the Stanford Athletics website, smoke hasn't a factor on the NE side of Sacramento where the meet was held.
NAU did not run their number 4 and 7 runners, Georgie Blemish and Ryan Raff, so that will make a difference for NAU like when BYU and other top teams run their top 7 next week. Remember so many teams ran to Qualify today and nothing else while many teams ran for the chance to Qualify.
I was at the West Regional. As I was leaving a little after 1:30pm (after the awards ceremony) it was like someone was turning down the dimmer; it was getting noticeably darker and hazier, and quickly. Up until then the air had been fine. But if that air had rolled in two hours earlier or the meet had been two hours later . . . oof, that would’ve been bad.
Now that Grayson Murphy has graduated, the Ute program is on life support. They decided to put all their eggs in the distance basket a few years ago, and have little to show for it. Finishing behind four Utah Universities that have more well- rounded track and field programs is a piss poor result. Even Utah Valley is nipping at their heels. Head coach needs to go.
The NCAA has released the qualifiers. Looks like they match the projections. Good luck to everyone in Madison!
I think they’re a little emotionally/spiritually drained after the events of the past few weeks....
Getting rid of their throws coach and focusing just on distance was a ploy to save his job for a little longer. It worked, but I don't think he will last past this season.
