- See Less -The University of Oregon track and field athlete started breaking records on a junior national and American high school level while competing for Portland’s Central Catholic High School. In 2004 he broke a 40-year-old U.S. junior record for the 5000m by almost seven seconds (13:37.91). Rupp also holds the U.S. high school record for 3000m at 8:03.57 and the U.S. junior record for 10,000m at 28:15.52.
Rupp’s collegiate career at the University of Oregon started out with a bang as he broke the 10,000m record in 27:33.48. In 2006, he became the 10th Oregon runner to win a Pac-10 title. Rupp finished second to lead the Oregon Ducks to the 2007 NCAA Men’s cross-country team championship.
Other career highlights include a 2005 USA Junior Cross Country championship, record holdings in U.S. Junior 3000m, 5000m and 10,000m, and a runner-up in the 2007 USA Outdoor competition.
haha. that man made the vid.
props to anyone who starts pulling that off
Flotrack is terrific for what it does, and is great for interviews, background, depth of coverage for events ESPN doesn't cover and all the fun quirky stuff, but it's just dumb to complain that Flotrack didn't buy the rights to show a NCAA championship or hire a professional video crew.
Flotrack only is considered credentialed media. On the back of every credential are terms of usage, that includes what you are allowed to do, and it specifically states that non-rightsholders are allowed to broadcast up to 3 minutes of race footage, period!
If you want to watch the meet, go to espn360.com or wait for the replay on March 23rd.
and Coes' jersey is butt ugly
hope that works...
ESPN360 has over 2 hours of yesterday's meet.
im currently watching the mens 5000 and i just watched sally's 5k.
they have the races in full length. just go to espn360.com then "replay" and NCAA championships
HIS KICK IS EVEN MORE RIDICULOUS!
3 mins for the whole day
Is it 3min of highlights per event? The whole day? With ESPN claiming the rights to everything iy could possibly be the whole meet. Could you clear this up?
Say what you want, but as long as ESPN & CBS are paying the NCAA for the rights to televise the Final Four, they can make the call on televising the NCAA track & field and cross country meets.
F U K ESPN AND THEIR MONEY
