All three advance

They advanced as an at-large team, which is all that matters in the end. But that was rough. They were running to win and had a solid lead at 5k and still led at 9k. Boyden was terrible, not sure what was going on there. I haven't heard anything about Lex but if he wasn't 100% for any reason then no reason to have him run. This team only goes 4 deep (Cole, Thomas, Lex, Leo) then hope for a good race from DiDidonato or one of the freshmen or possibly Nolan Topper. Bergeron has really stepped up lately.
As for the women, that was impressive. They also don't have a 5th, but that top 4 is as good as any in the country.
