It must've been some race at Colorado Mines this weekend. It's a great track, although an odd distance (perfect engineering, right?)
In the men's DMR, Metro State put two (!) teams ahead of Colorado Mines and Western State, both of which appeared to run strong squads. Adjusted for altitude, all four teams were under 10:06. In Houston last year, Mines won (at 9:56), Western was fourth and Metro State was fifth. Might be a new champ this March.
Elsewhere, Abilene Christian's Patrick Amos Sang ran a 4:08 mile at Texas Tech, while snowy roads made it impossible for Adams State to compete in Albuquerque. (The bulk of their season revolves around New Mexico meets.)
"Amos" Sang ran the 4:08 mile.
ReplyDeleteMore on the DMR at Mines. The race was really exciting as there were 5 teams (2 Metro, Mines, Western, BRC) vying for the win. Metro looks like the deepest mid distance team not named Adams state as they ran without Anthony Luna. Western ran without Tyler Pennel so look for them to improve as well. Mines had some bad luck in the race and their 400 leg was tripped up and sent rolling off the track costing them at least 5 seconds. The RMAC DMR will be an amazing race with Adams added in.
