A meet designed to get runners qualifiers for the NCAAs. Best mark on our side was Mark Dennin (redshirt freshman) ran a 13:56.43, which is a provisional mark for the NCAAs (auto is 13:47). Great run by Mark. Mike Krisch finished 10th in the same race in 14:07.96, which is also a provisional mark.
The men's DMR of Mason, Ulm, O'Connor, and Bean ran a 9:50.52, which is also a provisional mark, but they finished 14th, so probably will not go to the NCAAs.

Agree w/ Nevada re good runs by the women(probably won't make the NCAA's but good times/improvements). The men other than Krisch were pretty disappointing--on the DMR(video of races on Flotrack.org, both Mason and Bean faded badly on the 1200 and 1600 legs --the 400/800 legs by Ulm/O'Connor were pretty good. Hopefully Ulm and O'Connor will rip NCAA qualifiers today. This is the first time in recent memory that the men have not had a competitive DMR. The men's mid distance squad is way off its usual high standard this indoor season--hopefully they can improve for the outdoor. Bumby's return would certainly help. I think a combination of injuries(mainly Bumby), poor recruiting for a few years and a shift to a more balanced team adding strength to the hurdles and sprints has finally taken its toll on the elite middle distance effort. Also the times that collegians run has gotten much faster in the last few years--Gtwn's runners times have not improved with the pack unfortunately. Curiously the women's mid distance crew has done a better job of staying with the elite programs. Hopefully the men's fade will turn out to be a cyclical thing and last yr/this yr's recruiting class will turn out to be good and bring the mid distance program back to elite status. |

Toby Ulm ran aggressively but faded in 47.95, probably 1 sec too slow to make the NCAA's. Theon O'Connor did not start in the 800--too bad considering how well he ran yesterday.

In the mile Bean dropped out and Mason faded badly. I would assume Bean is sick-not clear what happened to Mason.

The women's 4X 400 burned a 3:35 to get second. Hopefully they will make the NCAA meet, that had to be one of the fastest indoor 4 X 400's ever for gtwn women.

Agree with the women's 4x400; might be a GU indoor record. Abi Johnson was also 2nd in the 400m in 54.17 (beating the BE champ from ND). A provisional mark, but not sure if it is fast enough. (Probably sub-54 gets in).
Bean got a 4:28.84 time listed in the mile for 40th and last; Mason was 33rd in 4:12.57.
