FloTrack NCAA Indoor Team Projections: #4 New Mexico Women
The New Mexico women will try to land on the podium in 2019 with their bevy of distance stars.

Coach's Insight: "Current plan right now is for Ednah [Kurgat] and Weini [Kelati] to double, they are potentially going to run the Millrose 3,000m. Then to get Charlotte [Prouse], Adva [Cohen] and Hannah [Nutall] qualified in the 3, see if we can get Hannah and Adva qualified in the mile and get a DMR qualified."
On competing with a distance-heavy lineup:
"It’s such a different philosophy than what most of the teams that have had the potential to get on the podium have gone on that route. So it’s so different that I don’t know if it’s necessarily on people’s radar. We’ve been thinking about this for two years. Even last year outdoors if we’d doubled some people and done some different things we may have had a different result and this year’s outdoor team could potentially score a lot of points as well."
