Winners, Losers From Week 2 Of NCAA Cross Country
Winners, Losers From Week 2 Of NCAA Cross Country
Some people (ahem, Wisconsin) just want to watch the (NCAA) world burn
Week two of the official NCAA cross country season has come and gone, and with it all of the top teams and individuals have now raced at least once. Sure, there are still some key athletes that we have yet to see, Ammar Moussa for Colorado and Jim Rosa for Stanford come to mind, but by and large, everyone has at least made their debut.
STOCK UP - Ryen Frazier
Watch Ryen Frazier win the loaded Notre Dame Invite in 16:22:
I understand that Frazier’s victory over the likes of Frerichs, Seidel, and Auckland doesn’t necessarily mean she’ll beat them at NCAAs, especially considering that the distance will bump up to 6K and the frosh is known more for her wheels than her strength. However, after her first two contests, I’m not going to be surprised by anything that Frazier does for the rest of the season. Expect to see her up front once again in two weeks time at Wisco, where she’ll test the championship distance for the first time and face Ostrander for the first time in cross country.
STOCK DOWN - Teams Without A 5th Man
STOCK UP - Aisling Cuffe and Stanford
STOCK DOWN - NCAA Bubble Teams That Didn’t Run At Greater Louisville
Without Wisconsin in the front pack, #7 Iona won the Greater Louisville Classic. Watch:
We won’t know how much of an impact Wisco’s finish will have on the NCAA landscape until regionals, but we do know that Louisville, Illinois, and Eastern Kentucky left Saturday with an extra Kolas point that they didn’t plan on getting at Louisville. Bubble teams that ran at different meets this weekend must be kicking themselves for not competing in Kentucky.
