Random Thoughts
Coach of the Year Women
- Will Guarino USD, Torero women 2010 track results with #2 5K returner (Vargo 18:36) as 9th team in WCC for #2 5K returners have beaten SMC, Pepperdine, and Santa Clara at Stanford and Bronco
- Ian Solof Portland, While redshirting Lyndy Davis, have taken 7 returners at 18:00 or better for 5K in 2010 to top 10 ranking in West
- Helen Lehman-Winters After losing top returners Krchova and Stolting and team still improves its chances to making NCAA Championships compared to 2010
Coach of the Year Men
- Rob Conner Portland, Ed Eyestone BYU Both teams have elevated WCC to one of only 4 conferences in NCAA to have two schools in top 10
Freshman of the Year Men
- Woody Kincaid Portland Won Bowles Gold race as William in 24:00
Freshman of the Year Women
Sarah Darby BYU 21:39 at Wisconsin (listed as Freshman at Notre Dame, Utah State, but as Sophomore at Griak,Wisconsin, sophomore on BYU website, on roster in 2010, but no XC results in 2010)
- WCC to broadcast live the WCC XC meet
http://www.wccsports.com/sports/c-xc/spec-rel/102511aab.html
- Old news, but still find it amazing that Laura Suur ended up at USF after a scholarship opened up in June. Although her profile exists, USF hasn’t updated roster to include her
