Meanwhile out in Seattle while traveling to go to the UW meet, the Stanford bus caught fire. Everybody got off the bus safely and GU grad and Stanford head coach, Chris Miltenberg was interviewed. Three of the Stanford coaches are GU grads (Dylan Sorensen and Elizabeth Maloy Debole besides Chris).

Thanks for the reports, Nevada. Great result for Joe! That would have been second on the 2018 list*.

Disappointed for the men in the mile. I hope they get another shot at a fast time - maybe ND Alex Wilson or else the Washington last chance.
