Sang's wins best of Charlotte; men's steeple standard should tighten

As cross season looms, I'm finishing up some loose ends from outdoors, namely the best performance in Charlotte, as chosen by you, the voters.
Amos Sang (Abilene Christian) swept both long races, including a stirring battle against local fave Michael Crouch (Queens) in the 5,000. Sang is my early favorite to win nationals in Louisville, although doubtful he'll be bringing a team with him.
Next best were Adams State's steeple duo, namely Reuben Mwei and Alicia Nelson, who handily swept both titles. Nelson returns, after Mwei graduated.
The final results for best performances in Charlotte:
  • Sang's double win 18 votes
  • Adams State steeplechasers 9
  • Puc's 2:04 5
  • Zeferjahn's win at home 3
  • Crouch's 4:12 last mile 2.
In a related poll, voters picked what qualifying standards should be tightened. The votes:
  • Men's steeple 17 votes
  • Women's 5,000 15
  • Women's steeple 7
  • Women's 10,000 5.
