Pac 12 XC champs tomorrow - BobK - 10-31-2019
It’s on the Pac 12 channel starting 11am
Stanford could win both Women and Men
And amazingly we seem very healthy with all possible runners entered
RE: Pac 12 XC champs tomorrow - BobK - 11-01-2019
For the Men Stanford finished 3rd. Colorado and Oregon 1-2
RE: Pac 12 XC champs tomorrow - Viking_Guy - 11-01-2019
Stanford Women just won going away: 27 points, finishing 1, 2, 3, 8, and 13. That's some performance.
Second was UW with 55, then Utah with 86.

Stanford women win!!! They go 1-2-3 with O’Keeffe winning. 27 an unbelievably great score

Was 3rd an under-performance for the men? Are there implications for the NCAA Championships with that finish?

On the women's side, O'Keefe, Donaghu and Lawson all beat Katie Rainsberger to take the top three slots. Oakes was 8th and Heymach finished 13th. In terms of depth, Archer was #26 and Aragon was #40.

I suspect Stanford men will be a top 5 favorite at the nationals. The Pac 12 is loaded. Northern Arizona is the brobdingnagian favorite

Some courses are better for some runners than others. Some days the conditions and tactics are just not ideal for your athletes.
Implications for NCAAs? As close to zero as you can get. Some psychological impact of having the runners suffer a relatively weak performance at the start of November. If they are the best team in Terre Haute later in the month it won't matter if they finished 1st or 7th in today's event.

Serious question: is the PAC-12 Championship meet important enough to peak for or do the top teams just train through it?
RE: Pac 12 XC champs tomorrow - BobK - 11-02-2019
My friends close to the program thought possible for the men. When then the women won so that doesn’t make sense
But bet true for the Arkansas women yesterday.
