There will be live streaming of the meet on Saturday and part of Sunday. Many Sunday finals, including the men's and women's 1 Mile races, will be shown live on ESPN. The following link provides more info about the webcast and TV coverage.

FWIW, here's the current qualified/declared entry list for the men's 3000m:
Brent Vaughn Nike NT
Bernard Lagat Nike 7:39.35
Aaron Braun Adidas/McMillan Elite
7:50.11
Jeff See Saucony 7:50.23
Chris Barnicle New Balance 7:55.70
Trevor Dunbar unattached 8:00.10
Scott Smith McMillan Elite 8:00.34
Jeremy Johnson Brooks 8:00.88
Derek Scott Puma 8:01.68
Kyle Alcorn Nike 8:02.56
Galen Rupp Nike/OTC Elite 13:11.44* (5K)
The big deal here is Galen Rupp and Bernard Lagat (the current American 5K and 2M indoor record-holders) going head-to-head. Also interesting to see Chris Barnicle's name on the list. Since he is based in New Mexico this will be a home meet for him. On the other hand, I also pointed out he was entered in the USA XC World Team Trials and didn't run there, so no guarantees.
Anyway, the 3000m is set to start at 6:30 p.m. local time (8:30 p.m. EST) on Saturday.

I enjoy that typo on the start list
Ha ha -- that's what you get when you shorten Christopher, what else would you think?
A few weeks back I fell on ice and strained groin. Been in the pool swimming like a fish since. Frustrating because this is the same injury I had last winter and it came at the worst possible time a few days before usaxc. Warmed up tonight but still not feeling 100% so scratched at last second. Only positive is I got to watch Lagat's last 800 meters. Truly amazing.
Hope you're back soon Chris. Excited to see your progress. Keep up the work. We want to se a BSC'er winning those USATF 3K Indoor Cahmps again. Good luck with your Outdoor season.
