PA runners in College + More!

 Hey guys, I just wanted to start this post discussing conduct in terms of posts. I love to hear the feed back and that's why I run this blog is to hear what all of you have to say along with providing some of my own insight. Your participation is what separates this blog from PennTrack and I don't want to have to censor comments. I'm big into free speech, but the vulgar language and acting like other people is not funny. It is rude and unacceptable. The "-Don" quotes were funny for a while, I'll admit, but it's gotten out of hand. PennTrack does do a good job with getting results and the interviews aren't that bad. They allow me to do what I do, without the results my job wouldn't be possible. So please, keep the positive comments coming and the negative ones elsewhere. Watching interviews with PA's top guys is always great to see, everyone truly is classy from this state and I don't like when some people ruin that great reflection for most of you out there.

Wisco Invitational PA Finishers (To my knowledge) – Championship Race

Jake Kildoo – 148^th place 24:36 (4:57 pace)

Austin Gregor – 196^th place 24:54 (5:01 pace)

Ryan Gil (first XC Race!) 205^th place 24:58 (5:02 pace)

Dustin Wilson 243^rd place 25:29 (5:08 pace)

Wisco Invitatinoal PA Finishers (To My knowledge) – ‘B’ Race

Joe Kush 4^th place 24:33 (4:57 pace)

Juris Silenieks 13^th place 24:56 (5:01 pace)

Nothing crazy from the Wisco invitational from any PA guys. Glad to see that Gil is running on college. He’s only had about 3 races since he’s been at school. Kildoo, Kush, and Silenieks are always need each other time wise which is great to see as they are continuing to improve. Gregor continues to make huge jumps which I love to see.

Pre-Nat’s PA Finishers (To My Knowledge)

Matt Fisher – 29^th 23:59.4

Radford Gunzenhauser –  112^th 24:42.6

Connor Quinn – 151^st 24:58.0

Nick Scarpello – 156^th 24:58.8

Brendan Shearn – 172^nd 25:02.9

Brad Miles – 198^th 25:10.3

Chris Campbell – 25:13.4

John Trueman – 228^th 25:19.1

Sam Hibbs – 232^nd 25:20.5

Austin Pondel – 235^th 25:22.1

Ryan Horgan – 349^th 25:51.2

Matt Fisher had the race of his life placing 29^th in a huge and talented field. He beat out Freshman fenom Jake Leingang along with other studs like Tyler Udland and Michael Atchoo. I’d love to see him keep this up and make Nats as an individual. As for other guys, Miles is on his last season and he hasn’t put anything great out there. His high school rival Gunzenhauser looked pretty solid, but nothing too impressive. I like the way some of the freshman are running like Quinn and Shearn though.

 Stay Classy!

P.S. District Previews start coming out tomorrow along with a new Top 50! Also I am going to try and make it to the District 11 meet to watch Abert crush his current course record and to see Freedom rolling. So look to see me there on Wednesday. And on Saturday I'll be down at Lehigh hanging around and doing interviews. I'd love to get to know you guys so come say hi at either one of those meets. I'll be wearing Muhlenberg gear (black and red).
