According to coach John McDonnell, Arkansas' goal at the Div I South Central Regional was just "to win and go on." Nevertheless, Arkansas junior Chris Barnicle ran what might have been the best XC race of his college career, finishing sixth overall and second for the Hogs in a 10K PR of 29:37.8. Arkansas took 5-6-7-9-12 on its home course to score 39 points, ahead of runner-up Texas (52 points) and obtain an automatic bid to the Div I national championships Nov 19.

Also, congrats to former BSC nnd current BC runners Brielle Chabot (15th, 21:12) and Jen Heyde (55th, 22:07) for their nice races at the Div. 1 NE race.
the scary thing is that arkansas wasn't even running all out
In NE Div III's Jerzy Eisenberg-Guyot ran well for the Tufts Jumbos (26:47), who qualified for nationals.
I am interested to hear about the race - one thing I noticed was that Bowdoin's top man was 25:07 (in fifth place), and their fifth ran 25:56 for 58th place. 49 seconds is a pretty kicking five man gap, but there were 53 finishers in that space.
