Do you actually not know the story?

Wow this guys so good he posted this on three different threads. Wartburg runners might as well transfer now cause this will make them lose all their talent.

There used to be an actual article about this from Wartburg online, but I think it’s been taken down. Someone posted a blog post about it above. I guess Wartburg’s men xc team had some tradition involving sexually harassing female DQ workers, one of which was underaged. The female employees eventually complained, but I don’t think anything was really done about it. A bit surprising as I think Amherst men’s xc team was banned either that year or the year after.

Anyway, stuff like this, as well as other things I noticed when I ran in the conference, makes me dislike Wartburg. Pretty great runners, kind of bad people.

A few years ago? You do realize none of the current runners were on that team, right?

exactly, nothing was done because it was fake news and nothing actually happened. They went back and apologied in person after the article and the DQ employees were like, "for what?"

Everyone knows you're lying and that's not at all what happened.

We can all agree that Wartburg is super fast and good for them (Although everyone knows they're shady) but let's not act like the culture at Wartburg is friendly and positive. And that's not just XC that's the school as a whole

Hey Wartburg is looking for some Clash of Clans players for the clan. If you play join cool xc clan. ID #2889p8q90

Shady? Just a bunch of running dorks like the rest of the conference.

Anyone know what happened to Pinkowski at Regionals?

he ran 26:49 and got 52nd

What a great showing by the two Loras women! 5th and 25th is great, I wonder what we would have seen from Loras had the entire team gotten an opportunity to race nationals.

If Loras' 3-4-5 finish dead last, Loras still gets 28th as a team, beating multiple of those at-large teams the selection committee decided were better.
