This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Getting 2nd was the best possible result. They had no chance by Domerduck

against Northern Arizona, who had 4 top 10 finishers (#4, #6, #7, & #9) all ahead of our best runner who was #10. Since the FSU player wasn't on a team those 4 gave them 22 points with one more runner needed to score. ND's 5 finishers were 87 total (9+19 through 21). The 5th NAU runner would have needed to be worse than 66th in team scoring to have ND win it all. He ended up 44 overall and 38 in team scoring so they got 60. NAU has won 4 of the last 5 championships with BYU winning the last one and NAU second. BYU women won it all this year. Those altitide schools do well in running.

ND's result was spectacular and I agree Nuguse was the true team leader. It was good call vs defending their DMR indoor NC which Oregon won with meet record. Nice to see my two alma maters do so well in track. I hoep to go to the NCAA outdoor championship in Eugene this year if Covid let's us. Nuguse and ND will put up a challenge against the Oregon men. Should be fun.
