2008 XC Recruiting Rankings (Women) : Speakers & Interviews

Do you not respect the canadian recruits???

Does anyone know what the background song is or who sings it?

nice work bro, you did really well with this don't worry about the critics

Well done on this one, I can tell you are already getting better in the reporting from the men's report to the women's. With the new haircut you look kinda like Drama from Rob and Big.

those are some extremely talented women

courtney lightfoot got 3rd at state her sopre year but then got hurt...shes a baller...good luck at UW

what about some DII or DII recruiting classes????? (oh and I agree...dude be more excited)

to be "less inspired" than he was on the men's side. I'm not saying he's sexist or biased or anything.. but I think any guy gets more excited about the NBA than WNBA, mens track than womens track, or mens LAX than womens LAX

just as a woman is probably more inspired about womens track than mens track, the WNBA than the NBA.. etc etc
cut Mr. Williams some slack, he did what no one else took the time to do

mccurdy is not running xc

brasovan is a junior

florida state? 3rd last year at NCAA'S?

I think for the Dookies you forgot/didnt know they also got Suejon Ahn, Esteer Vermeer and Amanda Truelove. Poorly researched. The thought was great but if you are going to do it, do it right.

lauren chetelat 7:28 for the 5k? now that's ridiculous

im sure the stanford girl has not run 8:55 for 5k

im pretty sure saratoga did not win the dmr

Alright so there was a little confusion with the University of Washington. Mietra Smollack actually signed with WSU, even though she was listed differently. Also, below is some updated info on some of their athletes.

2. Courtney Lightfoot PR’s: 2:16, 4:57, 10:52
3. Kayla Evans PR’s: 4:54, 10:46
4. KENDRA SCHAAF 16:05, 20th at World Cross, 4:20
5. Adrienne McGuirk, OR state champ 4:40 (1500), 10:00 (3k)
6. Allison Linnell PR’s: 4:54, 10:42, 6:53 (2k steeple)

That had to be the best amateur video I have ever seen. Those graphics were unbelievable. David Williams, you have done it again, stolen my heart and accomplished the unthinkable.

Oh my that was one of the best amateur videos I have ever seen. Those graphics were unbelievable. David Williams, once again you have stolen my heart and accomplished the unthinkable.

nice job on the video, keep up the good work!

also allison damon for cdm is going to duke

Well done; you have to understand no one does this--what Flotrack is doing is something we've all wanted but didn't want to put in the work. Not everything is going to be excessantly emotinal. Keep up the great work.

she won footlocker

Kauren Tarver is most definitely not the only 4-time FL finalist. 1st off Aurura Scott did it the same 4 years as Kauren, then there is Julia Stamps who won it once and dnf'd near the finish in dramatic fashion several times, then Zoe Nelson, Marie Lawrence- the 3 time runnerup, Jorge Torres was the only 4-time qualifier ever on the boys side. There may even be more on the women's side if you look deeper. There are several girls who are on the way to making that streak- Jessica Tonn, Cory Mcgee who all qualified their freshman and sopre years. ... a little more research before making broad statements like that. Not to mention Jordan Hasay...

What about Ashley Brasovan? Does she run XC?

there have been a few 4 time footlocker qualifiers, including Jorge Torres, Mel Lawrence, Nicole Blood, and some others who I cant think of

that something is poorly done or whatever, it is one person's opinion, and if it's not exactly what you think, that's too bad.

I think otherwise... I don't think that the Huskies would get catapulted that high. It would be closer to the Duke recruiting class but one runner wont make a team that much better.

this was REALLY poorly researched.
washington, you missed kendra schaaf! 20th at world cross country, 16:05 5000m and 4:20ish 1500m on the track?? better cross runner than bab for sure... bab+schaaf makes washington at least #2 recruiting class.

claire durkin is going to standford but she willnot be running the first xc season but she might decide to run later on
