Other things noticed at Louisville: Chico's Chavez a future champ?

Lots of interesting info in the final results. Here's a few I have noticed (please add your own):

• Ex-national champ Daniel Kirwa (Harding) certainly struggled in the conditions, mustering only a 42nd place. Glarius Rop (American International) also didn't like the slop -- he finished 23rd. Apologies for the rhyme.
• Is Issac Chavez (Chico State, pictured) a future champ? The freshman was fifth. Yes, yes, I'm already looking toward next year. ('Cause I'll be there in Spokane.)
• Augustana and Shippensburg had the most-unexpected men's team finishes. Augie's finish ensures six Central region men's qualifiers in 2011.
• Michael Crouch (Queens) talked about timing his kick better for his fourth matchup against Meshack Koyiacki. Impeccable timing, I'd say, and great prep work.
• Ferris State is in Michigan. (That's an acknowledgement of completely underestimating their women's team, which finished eighth.)
• The Grand Valley women certainly seemed in control early. And that was apparently by design. “As much as the men chewed up the course, we thought it was imperative to establish position out front because I thought it was going to be really, really hard to maneuver through a crowd as muddy and sloppy and slippery as it got,” coach Jerry Baltes told NCAA.com.
• Western State's David Flynn might not be done with cross this season. The soph was named top alternate to Ireland's under-23 team for worlds. Flynn was 40th in Louisville.
• 37 national cross titles for Adams State now. 37! The men made it look easy. And the women rallied from a slow start to a strong third, nearly nabbing their Western State rivals. Long live the ASC-WSC rivalry!
