on the first lap of the first 1,500m prelim. The top
four runners in each of the two...
|
...prelims,
plus the runners with the next four fastest times
would advance to Saturday's final.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nava
takes over the lead, and Montana's Scott McGowan joins
him up front.
|

(1st, 3:46.58), McGowan (2nd, 3:46.71), Stanford's
Don Sage (3rd, 3:46.84), Mahoney, Adam Davis, Bryan

lap to go.
|
Arkansas'
Chris Mulvaney (3:46.39) and Said Ahmed (3:46.64)
went 1-2, followed by Robison (3rd, 3:46.81) Wisconsin's
Josh Spiker (4th, 3:46.82) and Tom Parlapiano (5th,
3:47.06)...
|
...who
rounded out the qualifiers. Arkansas was in the race
for the team title, and having two runners in the
final would help them tremendously.
|
In
the first of two steeplechase prelims, NAU's Henrik
Ahnstrom leads going over the water barrier for the
first time. Because the barrier was on the outside
of the track, the race was just over seven laps.
