On Saturday, Indiana State hosted the NCAA Division I Pre-Nationals, a meet attended by many of the top teams in the country as a preview of the course that will host the DI championships in November. The meet divides competition into two more or less equal races --"blue" and "white" -- with the men running 8K and the women running 6K. New Mexico's Chris Barnicle (NNHS '05) finished 52nd in the white race, running 24:35.6.
Interesting to note that among the women, both individual winners from the 2008 Mass. State meet, Emily Jones and Kristen Kasper, were competing for Georgetown in the Blue race. Jones finished an impressive 22nd in 21:10.8, while Kasper finished 80th in 21:54.8.
Dan Hamilton (NNHS '09) raced on Saturday, as the Univ. of Rochester hosted the Yellowjackets Invitational. Hamilton ran 27:33 for the 8k course.
Faithful friend of NSRP Michael Burnstein (Brookline '08) had a great race yesterday at the Brooks Invitational hosted by University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Mike ran 24:48 for 8k and was first finisher for Washington University of St. Louis, where he is a sophomore transfer.
