The Stride Report:
17. Georgetown Hoyas (457 points) I said that the Georgetown men needed to have a good race on Friday if they wanted to extend their season to the national meet...and I think they did that.
A 17th place finish is far from exciting, but when you look at the teams that they beat, I can't imagine a scenario where they don't get an at-large national qualifying bid if they were to place 3rd in the Mid-Atlantic region.
The Hoyas had a lineup similar to Utah State.
They had a strong low-stick (Parker Stokes in 37th), a respectable secondary scorer (Sean Laidlaw in 88th place), decent third and fourth runners (Shea Weilbaker in 100th and Quinn Nicholson in 102nd) and a fifth scorer who did a good-enough job (Abelt Teffra in 134th).
All Georgetown needs to do this season is continue to show up like they did on Friday. They'll never be the most exciting team in 2022, but replicating these kind of results should get them a bid to the national meet and a top-20 finish on the national stage as certain teams falter from more vulnerable lineup structures.

In the national polls the men rose 2 spots to #26. The women rose one place to #12.
