Good news for Mantz’s chances at XC nationals

Will this be his last year?

3/2/21 7:50pm

DesNews article the other day said yes.

3/2/21 8:33pm

How subpar is Grivalja performing?

Doesn’t really change the team equation, imo.

Nico Young, the true freshman from Northern Arizona, has to be in the conversation.

I think he’ll be top 10, but right now he can’t just run away from everyone,

Joe Banks

I'd be stunned if Nico could pull it off.

No way Kiptoo can win if he has to race a 5k all out 3 days before.

It’s akin to a 5k/10k double in track. Studs can do it. Not sure if Kiptoo is that caliber of runner though.

CrimWalCoug

A championship 5K wouldn't kill his legs.

Enough of a hindrance that Eyestone was emphatic his guys didn’t try it

Bill

It depends. The Olympians who do the 5k/10k double in track run extremely high

I think benefit is more mental and emotional than physical.

It’s an absolute physical disadvantage at the college level. Their mileage is no

RUNBYU1

3/3/21 7:44pm

I think it's clear now that the indoor 5k negatively affected Kiptoo quite a bit

NAU sat out their top two guys at the conference championship.

I thought it was typical NCAA XC coaching to sit a few guys at regionals?

Joe Banks

3/3/21 8:54am

It was their conference championship. I believe there are no regionals this year

HomeTownHero

*sat 3 of their top 4
