Six of the top 10 are Adams Staters, thanks to a quick (altitude-adjusted) mile at, you guessed it, the University of New Mexico.
Aaron Braun was officially given a 4:01 mile, edging teammate Ryan McNiff. Reuben Mwei and Brian Medigovich recorded 4:04s. If they do dominate the mile at nationals, it'll be interesting to see how the points stack up against sprinter-heavy St. Augustine's. Braun, McNiff, Mwei and Medigovich are likely candidates for the 5,000, I suspect. It's too bad one of those guys can't toss the 35-pound weight about 65 feet, too.
Metro State (Colo.) athletes had a fine weekend, too. Rick Bogotay was third in the UNM mile; Shawn Lindbloom leads the D2 nation in the 800m. These two figure to be part of Metro's national championship-vying distance medley relay. And they might collect titles of their own, if they can get past their fellow Coloradoans.
